I'm Scared My Ex Moved On

I'm Scared My Ex Moved On. Often times after a breakup, our ex can be very cold. They look like a different person. Often times they even start dating someone new right away and look very happy with that new person. Craig explains why we are so scared and what is going on within us.

[@tonyflores6237]

scarcity creates value. A lot of people want what they can't have and not actually for the right reasons. this partially what causes separation anxiety. We only see the good times and forget the actual bad times, seeing things through rose colored glasses. Not saying that person isn't the one if you believe in that, but for the most part we see them as someone they truly weren't. There are 7 1/2 billion people out there, so chances are there is someone better out there for you than your ex. Not always, but a good chance.

[@effiekatrantzi2103]

Coach Craig Kenneth Hello from Greece! Your videos are a treasure to me, very insightful and give me hope that I still have a chance. It's been two weeks since my ex of a two years relationship broke up with me. I immediately went no contact with him until yesterday that I had to inform him about something that he really had to know. He called me the moment he read the message and sounded very excited, interested and happy to talk to me. It was me who had to end the conversation as he seemed he could talk for as long as he could.This really confused me as the last month of our relationship he was distant and said he needed space so it would be easier for him to get over me. I believe a Skype with you would be extremely helpful, if I have the courage to speak in English and don't freak out in front of you!

[@daniel_bernhard_]

Coach i have a short question. Should I let my ex my new phone number? Altough she showed immature behaviour i.e. remove - friend request - remove from social media.

[@simplykaran7214]

Coach Craig Kenneth Sir your every video is very Soothing to my soul and Very Thoughtful, been watching your videos for 5 days now and following no contact rule with my ex wife who left me for some Nigerian guy and trying to enjoying herself with this Nigerian Man who Scammed her around like 7 months ago and since then they've been Dating each other on Facebook messenger, all she has to say to me is she loved me and don't wanna lose me but still left to Nigeria for Another Man! I don't know what's on her heart me or that Nigerian man!!!

If you ever think your situation is hopeless just think of my story. She broke up with me and her dad threatened me with a restraining order if I ever talked to her again. I didn’t even do anything and she still broke my heart.

[@rwentfordable]

I know the feeling and you did everything right. They make things up and you ask for evidence and they have none or it's so vague you have no clue what they're referring to. Heard nothing in two years and dating again and wonder is it worth the time, money and emotions?

Do I have 0 chances that he will ever miss me and come back if we dated 3 months (very intense) and we never made it official?? This is the second break up, he came back the first time and told me he misses me and really wants to see me, we met and hooked up. He was very happy to see me again. He broke up the day after when we were at a cafe and told me he never caught feelings for me which confused me because the night before, almost crying, told me he doesn't understand his feelings..he doesn't know what he feels for me but all he knows is that he wants to see me. In 9 days it will be 3months of no contact 😔....

[@grahamwalton8351]

Helen sounds exactly like mine. Couple months very intense, intimate connection I've never felt before. I went no contact for a month then reached out and received a cold response. Then a week ago I got the urge and called her. No answer. So I'm at the point now of no contact forever so we are in this journey together!

My therapist said he's not thinking about me and I'm not on his radar. Though I admitted that was true it makes me so sad. Then I remembered sometimes therapists give bad counsel cause they aren't trained in breakups. I mean who knows? Not me. So bummed. Ty Craig.

[@a.j.g1696]

I'm going through the same thing right now I'm sorry you're feeling this way. My ex is posting jealousy-based stuff online each weekend trying to insinuate that she is dating. Also excessively going out each day and spamming instagram with excessive posting. The therapist is going to tell you what's best for your healing and of course your therapist cannot see what's actually in they're mind. The healthier perspective is to assume they don't think of you at all so you can disconnect. I'm telling you this btw while I cannot follow it myself and fighting no contact currently.

I wish I could call her or text her but I don't want to interfere in their relationship out of respect. Please help me

[@barbarariley3488]

Wow she jumped.into.a new relationship so fast.sounds like a rebound.

[@greatscottgaming8681]

I can relate to this although I still hold hope that she will eventually break the no contact process I have started three days ago. It was so confusing for me though as the last time we saw each other, we had mind blowing sex but as soon as I left the house, she texted me telling me it was definitely over and that was the last time I would see her. I figured she was confused and just needed a little persuasion or for me to be more assertive and take a dominant, masculine approach but after being needy and pursuing her for several days, she has now taken to blocking me on social media as well as blocking my number. The last message I sent to her just told her that I loved her and cared for her deeply and that if she ever needed to talk that I would be there for her no matter what. That was three days ago and although I am sick to the pit of my stomach that she will move on, forget about me and find someone else, I haven't broken no contact yet. I plan on leaving it around 2-3 weeks and if she hasn't reached out before, then sending her a dozen red roses for valentines day but I feel that this would be too much of a "grand gesture" type approach. I know this has worked in the past when she has been a little moody and she has always contacted me afterwards to tell me how sorry she was and that she thought the flowers were beautiful and a lovely gesture. Not sure though this time, she dumped me and I want to make her worry to the pit of her stomach that she has lost me. Anyone have any advice?

Me and my ex had only been together for about 46 days. She said she wasn’t ready for a relationship. It happened about a month ago. We shared some pretty intimate moments. I applied the no contact rule as best I could. She reached out to me one day and I asked to meet up with her and catch up and she agreed. But when the day came she texted me to cancel at the last minute saying she had a ton of homework to do. About 3 weeks later of no contact she posted pictures on Instagram of her cuddling with her supposed new boyfriend. And she’s also posting it on her Snapchat story and it looks a little bit more intense than the relationship we had. I feel like my situation is hopeless... I unfollowed her and continuing no contact

Same thing happend to me...She told me she is not ready fot a relationship but that she still loves me.I was upset at the beginning but then I just agreed and let her go.So now Im in no contact hoping she comes back but I think she will just go with someone else that already was her ex before me so that: "Im not ready for relation" thing is bullshit.3weeks later she has a relationship ?

My bf if 1 1/2 years (living together for 5 months out of that 1 1/2) broke up this past 2 years. I take care of my 80 year old mother who has dementia. Nov of 2017 my mom sold her house so my mom and I moved in with him into his 1 bedroom apt while we looked for a bigger place to live in. This was his request. 3 people living together in a 1 bedroom apt created such a stressful situation and to add to it, he was stressed out over finances since I couldn’t work due to taking care of my mom. The stress finally led to a major blow up on Tuesday where he pushed me back hard enough for me to fall back against a door and told me to pack up me, mom and out things and move out. So I did. According to his son, he was devastated about pushing me and bec I had moved me and mom out. He supposedly cried while he was at work, cried in the drive home and cried again when he walked into an empty apartment. He sent me two txts the day we broke up, apologizing. And we spoke briefly the next day where he said it was best that things ended bec the stress was so unbearable that it made him do things he wouldn’t do. I said ok, I can respect that. he did ask his son where I was and who I was staying with which his son gave very vague info to appease him. there was no cheating of any kind by the way on either side. I miss him. Is this over?
