Why I do no contact

It's not because I am strong, it's because I am so scared that if I do contact him he will ignore me or respond once or twice and then ignore me and I will feel even worse.

I feel like a fraud. I don't have willpower, just a horrible fear of rejection.

The only positive is that I think the longer he holds out, hopefully the more I'll move on. So far it's 1.5 weeks and I feel as horrible as ever.

If he contacted me today, I'd reply right away, and we'd be right back in frustration land. So it's probably good he is more stubborn than me ;)

I've had 5 serious relationships since my early 20's (I'm mid 40's now), and this one is by far the hardest I've ever faced.

It's his birthday soon. I guess I am meant to ignore that? He ignored my recent birthday, which stung (a lot).
