    I understand your fear of her thinking you’re better off as friends, but down the line if she develops more intense feelings, you might sense it. She might become more touchy feely or something, but I really don’t know. After many months you might be able to ask about a closer relationship without upsetting her. But back off if she rejects that idea.
    Stay calm and good luck:)

    Do you think all hope is lost?

    I really want to text her this ‘You’re one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I realize that now. I’m sorry I made the same mistakes over and over again and lost you before I could realize that.’ Is this a bad idea?

    OMG! More feelings? Absolutely do not text that! You’ve already done begging and this sounds disguised as more of the same. I don’t know if all is lost, but if you keep this up, your chances will probably drop dramatically. Pun intended (too much drama). Sorry, you really need to chill..

    You are absolutely right. I suck at this. I should just focus on myself right now and just stick to the plan until March 30th (the concert). I’m sorry for bothering you this much..

    Okay here the deal bro. Snooping always bad. Refrain. Next assuming. Something thinking that other people are saying or doing bad stuff to us make us look bad. (Trust me bad) show her stability. Well i also see you have a hard time of not speaking. Here’s the thing about nc. You create a shroud of mystery and cover yourself upon it. But if you talk too much. She will know everything about you. That would mean she wouldnt be interested in a story she already knows the answer to. Become unpredictable. Now. Show you are a good friend to her. But not too much. A pushover is never good. It’s like this “you are special so I’ll do this for you but there are limits” kind of stuff. She is currently a friend. And if she doesnt value her you should start valuing her time less. You know like when she invites you. You occasionally decline. Why? She is not a priority anymore. If she valued you more you would have given her better treatment. Do it in a nice way tho like. “Im sorry im busy studying” or “Im at a friends house and i need to finish something before the deadline or whatever.” Why? She needs to value you more. Project higher value. Improve if necessary. Study harder. Exercise. Meet new people. Do anything that will make you a perfect choice.

    O yeah and if you seem certainly like your in the zone where in she says “you a good friend” dont and i mean dont reply. Start nc immediately like a week. I know that one sucks. But you have to avoid being that good friend. You want to be a great find. Not a great friend.

    People who cant leave their exs usually are people who cant adjust without a certain person in his or her life and has fear. It differ from each person. Now. You need to improve on how you interact to her. Give her a shocker. Dude. No contact. She’s doing you a favor. If she exts you in the middle of it you would lose all composure. Actually you are probably losing it now. Remember those who usually speak more fk up more. Less is best when it come to these. Lessen emotion. Lessen stess. Stop thinking ahead. You dont need to be two steps ahead. Just focus on yourself for now. Im sure there is an aspect in yourself even you dont like?

    Thank you for replying! It means a lot.

    We haven’t had any contact in 8 days now. I don’t think I’m even her friend right now? She just seems completely fine without hearing anything from me and it scares me. If she would text me something, I’d probably freak out but at least I’d know she still cares, you know? It just looks like she is forgetting about me.

    (I’m a girl btw haha, I don’t know if you read the full story like what happened before I started NC, I posted it here: https://ebpforums.com/boards/topic/is-there-still-a-chance-for-us-i-could-use-some-help/)

    You continue to torture yourself. Please stop wondering what she thinks or what she is doing! Caring about someone and wanting to be with someone is a relationship are two different things. If she texts, don’t freak, and don’t answer. You have annoyed her too much already! You’re going to the concert at the end of the month..take it from there.

    I know I’m torturing myself. It’s just that every single day that she doesn’t text me, I’m scared she’s just forgetting about me. What if she doesn’t text me, not even on the day of the concert?

    Day 13 of no contact. I’m feeling better and I’m trying to focus on other things. I’m just wondering.. What does it mean that she hasn’t contacted me either?

    Nobody knows for sure what it means, but I can assure you she won’t forget you. How could she forget how annoying you were. How could she forget you interrogated her about everything. And she hasn’t forgotten that she wanted you to stop talking about feelings, and yet you persisted. You also begged and pleaded after the break up. My guess is she is recuperating from all that. She is happier now that she finally has breathing room away from all the drama. Congrats on no contact for 13 days and please continue it until maybe the day before the concert, then contact via text like only to say “See you at the concert. Looking forward to it”. Keep the text short and cheerful.
    I’m glad you’re feeling better and trying to focus on other things:)
