DAY 6 NC - He defriended me on Fb

I feel soooo sad for some reason, some help!

Almost a week after we ran into each other (well he waited for me at the traffic lights) and he told me had been seeing and sleeping with another girl (that night I took the "In Relationship" bit with him off) he has defriended me on FB.

Why do I feel such incredible sadness? Why do I cry over this guy still?

Funnily enough it's the same I had an interview for a company I have been wanting and dreaming of working with for about 7 years!! (He knew it was my dream)

They are interested in hiring me, and when I was having a good day, he does this.

Why why why... Someone help me, we had so much, such an intense relationship and he just goes and defriends me just like that?

Shouldn't you be happy? Why

Shouldn't you be happy? Why aren't you jumping up and down and saying, Woo Hoo!!! It sounds like he's finally getting the point, which is, you are DONE with him! Really look at who he is. YOU DON'T WANT HIM. I think you've forgotten. Read your list of all the crazy and hurtful things he's done to you. For Corns Sake, he's sleeping with another woman!! Please don't forget how life is helping you. Your life wants him out!

Mine blocked me just about at

Mine blocked me just about at day 6 NC! I had posted on here at that point, because it upset me so much. But I must say, it has been just over a month NC now and it really helps not to have him on my FB. I would never have defriended him, but I must say, that while we were still FB friends, I was being very careful about what I posted. Him being off has allowed me to reconnect and joke around with friends again, without knowing he was watching. It's a good thing, I promise you. Be strong, Hugs, Ekat

Ahh, the facebook defriend

Ahh, the facebook "defriend" maneuver. One of their favorite little games. You know what you do? You BLOCK him. That way, when he comes sniffing around your page again, you won't be there anymore! In other words, YOU get the last word on that little power struggle, poor narc.

Maneuver indeed! Man, are they pathetic!

Ruby, of course it is not a sign of indifference! Would you defriend someone who you really do not care about? The very good part is that you no longer have an option of checking on him!

I think she said he only

I think she said he only defriended her...or did I misread? usually they don't block so they can keep tabs. My ex defriended me and I went and blocked him, just in case he ever decided to peek at my page to see if he could glean any info. It felt really good to know that if he ever tried that, he'd see he's been cut off completely. I highly recommend it!

now block him on FB

Block him, so you can control this. He will no longer be able to see or even find your profile, and you will feel much calmer knowing that you can recover and move forward in peace without his snooping on your page. If you are having any doubts about doing this, know that it is reversible...although yu won't ever want to reverse it, once you do it. And once you've blocked him, he cannot block you.

Even though he took you off

Even though he took you off of friends list you can still 'win' by putting your profile on STRICT private features. SO when he looks at your profile from an alias account ( which he will) or through ( google if your profile is open) he will NOT be able to find you ever. ALSO he can choose to unblock you and add then reblock you at anytime. SO I suggest you go private so that he can NEVER find you. AND THEN this is how the ball is back in your court because even when he wants to silently hoover...your profile is NOT available. I'd also take myself off of everything on the web if possible.

I don't know, I guess I'm not ready yet. I thought for old times sake we could still keep it friendly. :( I don't know, I'm so hurt now. He really doesn't give a crap about me after 5 years living together and being each other's best friend for about 10 years...

Nope

Hard as it is to accept..he doesnt give a crap about you. You are supply to him. I was married for 14 years and I see what you are going thru, that was the hardest part to accept. I thought just like you, we could keep it friendly...but I did not exist for him until he was dumped but the OW. He doesnt care.....only for himself...

That is the hardest part to accept I guess. He can just click a button and forget about me, just like that. On Thursday he was saying it was "the biggest mistake he ever made" and I was "the best woman he has ever met" Yeah well... quite easily you remove me from your life. So so painful. I just want to stop this pain and tears, it all sucks for me lately. I'm a good person I don't deserve all the crap that's happening to me in the last 6 months.

He didn't click a button and forget about you. He did something to hurt you, and it did. That makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Hurting you makes him happy. Can you see it now? Can we all see it now? This is the true reality! This is how it will always be! It is a disorder, and there is NO CURE. ds

My turn for reality!

I have to accept the same as I give. And the truth is the truth, and illusions must be uncovered for the truth within to be found. Staying attached to my fantasy kept me attached to a nightmare, a distorted dream that would never play out in real life here. Focused on the small aspect of my life obscured everything else...imagination, hopes for a happy life, possibilities, and the desire to love and be loved. So here is my truth.. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. Hurting me makes her happy. And hurting her keeps me sick! ds

So you think that he is doing

So you think that he is doing it on purpose, hoping to cause pain? I always wonder whether they act just how they feel and don't realise it hurts people, or deliberately WANT to hurt. Maybe because he knew I had my interview today? (some friends were wishing me good luck on my wall thingy)

Don't give him the opportunity to hurt you again. Block him.

My guess

He feels like he is losing control and is trying to get it back, just see it as pathetic desperation on his part. or a good sign that you are coming out from under his spell after all its when we gain our power back that they try to get it....

I so agree with that Hunter.

I so agree with that Hunter. I told him so much about myself in the first months, and every little detail of my life was turned back against me later. I remember a few weeks into the relationship, he threw a fit because I was being secretive about some thing in my life. Not that I had anything to hide, but I don't like opening up so much so soon. Now I understand why this bothered him so much!

I don't know, I guess I wasn't there yet... I have written off any possibility of EVER having a relationship with this man, but I would have never defriended him because we shared a lot for many years. Is that a hoover attempt, really? Trying to get my attention somehow I guess?

He was never your friend,

He was never your friend, Ruby. His defriending you for the purpose of hurting you is just another example of his true colors showing through.
