FWIW

Cut off ALL contact. Now. Forever.

Any communication AT ALL will just create a false hope. The worst thing to think is "maybe she will come back". It will make a hole in your heart you just pick at. Make a decision to let it die now.

Second a drive is a good idea, booze free. Go to Scotland :D

Take books, do something you have wanted to or like. Nothing that's extravagant. You need a diversion till your work is done, then take a long drive on the Continent.


The key here is to make a decision to DO something (not that you loved to do with her BTW) and to make a complete break.

Best advice I can give.

She's just some girl whoring herself out just to get back at her x-bf. I would NEVER be with anyone who did that. She has some serious issues, no doubt in my mind after reading your post. Be single-minded about it, she's not your type right now.

Honestly, the fact that she's doing this to hurt you just means she's not over you. Don't get your hopes up, focus on your life without her in it. The best response you can have is to get over her completely and be happy. It will drive her nuts. If you do this, I'm almost positive you'll hear from her a few months from now to "see how you are" and you'll be ready to do whatever you want.

I wouldn't date much, unless you just need to see if you've "still got it." Just hang out with some good friends all the time for a while.

You could use the 2:1 rule to get completely over her.

-If you've been with her for two years since your last split, then it'll take you one year to get completely over her. Do anything and everything without her, even if she wants you.


If your friend asked you if he should get back together with a girl who was this disfunctional and manipulative, would you say yes?

she sounds like my ex.. all women want to play games after a break up. best thing cut them off and ignore. if you got to change numbers do so.. my ex did stuff like yesterday calling my mom to wish her happy mothers day which is kinda like what ya doing? you broke up with me, so why you trying to get back at me.

Your ex is just playing games.. move on.. i know its hard, i know the feelings of 'ugh" and having the heart shatter, she did a few things that made me do that, but trust me the more she does that, the more stronger you have a reason to move on. She on the other hand will regret the rest of her life.

I know how you feel. 5 years is avery long time to spend with any person. Once they are gone you feel as if some part of youself is missing. Don't stay intouch with her and let time heal your wound. Good luck.

Went I broke up with my ex. we still became friends. But I haven't talked to her in close to a year and a half. I tend to block all memory, cell phone numbers, anything and everything that reminds me of her. I still think about her from time to time...but that's it...nothing else. Just move on with your life. Go back to hobbies you use to love doing but couldn't when you were dating. Hang out with the boys and enjoy life. Don't think too much.
