Stop...

Stop contacting him, Snowflake. Just let him be, so you can heal. I know where you are at, and I called a friend, I cried out loud, I WROTE in my journal, I slept, I cleaned my house, I read a book, I watched a show, I called a friend, and cried - BUT I did not call or contact exn whenever I had a chance. I know he's an addiction, and I know it's painful. I prefer a tooth pulled without drugs to what I've been through.

I did contact him a total of four times after I left him - one week after D&D; six weeks after D&D; four months after D&D; and five months after D&D. The first two times were calls I had made; the last two were actual visits to his house. I wish I hadn't done that, but I did. It's been almost a year for me, and there has been contact because we lived and worked so near each other that it was impossible not to see each other. Now, he has moved and resigned - thank God for that and I'm working on me. Still challenging as heck, but I want to move along.

It still hurts, but what can I do? Really what can you do? Can you make him feel sorry and remorseful? Can you? I called a trusted friend when I had felt the urge to talk to him or cuss him out. I'd call the friend and admit what I wanted to do and asked if I should or not. I was fortunate my friend just wanted me away from him and she DID NOT encourage ANY contact with him. She'd hear me out, listen, empathize, and encourage me to be the person I'm meant to be; that I had too much great traits to lose on one man who DID NOT care for me.

ExN would have loved the drama of me calling and texting him. He would have loved to tell people how crazy and unstable I was - because that's what he said to me, I did not want to prove him right. Leave it alone - it is HARD work...stop contacting him. You are not teaching him any lessons about how great you are or how you hold him in contempt. He sure loves feeling like he is right though.

Stop playing with fire...do you want something to happen?

I know it is hard. It was awful...years ago, I had a tooth pulled and the novicane had not set in and the dentist started the extraction. It was brutal. I struggled, he struggled, and after I was traumatized. She chuckled and said it hadn't set in yet and I felt I'd been beaten up. I was shaking and too shocked to even cry or respond. It wasn't until I got home and the novicane kicked in that I started to cry. Later, I had brusing along my jaw and under my chin!

The narc experience/breakup/D&D was worse. I still cry...not as much as I used to, but it still is there - he's gone now. After he left, I went through another grieving period - he was actually, physically gone now, and yes, cried again. Even though I avoided him, he was still my drug too. I still got hits just knowing he was around. Now, I feel the final withdrawals - just found out he married OW. What could I do? I cried, saw my therapist yesterday and she said, "He really abused your kindness and trust. I am glad you are out of that relationship. I don't know if my opinion counts, but I am so glad you are on the planet. You are kind, gentle, and intelligent."

Later, after I had expressed that I still had moments of doubt and said I don't understand...if he wanted to be with OW all along, why did he even bother with me? He should have just gone to OW and left me alone. She said, "He probably wanted to be with you because of your nurturing side and accomplishments, but realized that he could not keep up. He was in over his head, so he blamed you to not take responsiblity for his actions. You are too healthy for him." She always remind me - You are too healthy for him. I have to believe this...

I know my responses are long-winded. I talk a lot, but I want to share that NC was hell in the beginning, and can still be; that I am still recovering, and it takes time. Get ready to make the committment, because it is a challenge. Don't make the proclamations that "this is the last time...," because personally, when I do that, I end up falling hard...I'm trying to find the balance. I want to be a better person for me.

Take care and be strong...

I value your comments..my last texts to him didnt go through..I ran out of credits so they bounced back, inc one about me being bored.

Maybe someone looking over me, I mean you really shouldnt antagonise a Psycho should you.

The only ones were when I wasnt trying to one up but just explaining how I feel.

He s in my town today is hoovering to meet and its such an internal fight...my friends dont understand why the temptation to meet him is there..but hopefully you all understand.

Snowflake's picture

Oh

this is pure hatred.

I told him I was bored with him. He will f'ing hate that. Past caring now.

This is IT.

NC starts tomorrow..properly..seen all the tricks now..and I am bored, really bored.

The silent treatment bores me, he bores me, what a loser no more time going to be wasted on him.

Write down all the bad things he says and does (past and present), and read it whenever you miss him.

Then scream and cry...but

Then scream and cry...but please get serious about closing up all the cracks in your house. The power of God and the universe is inside you girl, this situation ends when you say it ends.

Love,
Lynn

Seriously!

It MUST be the full moon. I have been feeling the same way!
Snowflake, stay strong. You were set up. That coward won't say squat to your hubby. The NC from you drove him mad, so he resorted to what he KNEW would get a response. Dickhead!

Snowflake's picture

Yeah

I had one friend telling me to keep communication. Anyway I have had enough.

Just told him I am bored with you, goodbye.

I get it....

is your friend a therapist? You must not contact, text, phone, approach, search facebook, google NO CONTACT.
Yes, it is hard. My day started out badly and then like dominos falling went down hill with me failing emotionally, crashing and falling down. I have shed the tears, called a sister, vented and have survived. You're cheating yourself....

With friends like that...

.... Who needs enemies?! I'm sure she had her reasons, but doesn't seem like very good advice to me. :-(
