When Your Ex Finally Breaks!

[@jehan9]

Trust me. They ALL came back. I was dumped 2x (my fault) and even those 2 came back. The toxic ones like the chase, blocked on everything and will find a way to reach out to you. Listen to Coach Lee. No contact is for you. It's for your own healing. The first few weeks will be tough. Keep yourself busy. Journal. Workout. Cry if you need to. Talk to friends. Find a hobby. It will get better.

[@argeldolotina3823]

[@Layerlol]

​@argeldolotina3823 They come back but it's usually a sad end anyway because when they do it's subtle and they don't give in, They just text saying hey here and there and then kind of just fade away with regret. Usually the dumper feels regret after they leave someone that was good to them

[@ericbellamy3518]

Well I was bitter cause after we were broke up within a month in a half we had closure she decided to tell me that she slept with her baby daddy while we were broke up. And I felt like she was trying to hurt me so I was petty and lied to her and said I cheated on her to get her back even though I didn't cheat. So recently she made a excuse to see me asking for a belonging of hers back and we talked briefly and I told her I didn't cheat and she kinda felt in the back of her mind that I didn't cheat and we decided to meet up one day soon and just talk. But the last few times she tries to see what I'm doing I'm always busy. I kinda afraid of getting back with her and missing out on someone better. I was mainly the reason we broke up from insecurities but I been healing and working on myself just enjoying the single life but at the same time I'm not getting any younger being 40 years old.

I work with my ex.... so yeah NC was difficult, but because of my role. It was easy to have my team deal with her. it's been a year+. Therapy has changed my life immensely, I chose me, and I put myself first. I don't chase or beg people to stay in my life. Everyone who knows/works with her and sees how she looks now and changed. My ex did alot of these behaviors at the beginning of the break up. But I stood on business and kept to my boundaries. She saw me for the first time in many months, and my legal/field team all noticed she was heavily checking me out. I peacocked and did my thing in my cases. I know she misses me because the judge had me respond to her questions and the people who know me were wondering to see if I'd get nervous or falter...man I was so chill with it. We all noticed my ex had crinkled a smile and blushed. No contact works, I chose to move on and just put in the work. If she wants to come back. That's cool, I'm not going to reference a closed chapter, however I'm not going to fall for the same nonsense... plus I know my worth🤙🏾

The thing I learned the most from these helpful vids (and I’m sure coach lee will agree) is not to binge all these vids and cope the entire day. Yes watch a few for knowledge and what to do and not do, but don’t just watch one as soon as you feel breakup anxiety. The biggest point of no contact is to work on yourself during this time so whether they reach out or not you will still be A-OK.

You will then be able to focus on your future knowing that there is abundance in the world (including an abundance of love). One person out of how many billion people should NOT cripple you. There is more out there. Wishing you well ❤

SAME - your situation sounds similar to mine. We had a 11yr relationship before he broke up with me saying he needed a “clean slate” because he was overwhelmed by other stresses in life with his career and kids and ex wife drama. He said he couldn’t be in a relationship anymore and suddenly changed on me. More then my boyfriend I am heartbroken I lost someone I thought was my best friend. I never thought he would leave me like this. I always thought we could at least be friends but he has shut me out. He says he isn’t dating but I don’t think he is telling me the truth. Its been 16months now since he broke up with me and I cant move on. I don’t think I will ever find happiness again like I had with him and now that version of him doesnt even seem to exist anymore. I tried to stay in his life and be supportive to him and try to remind him what we had together and convince him to give our relationship a chance for 10 months and I now know I just pushed him further away by doing this😭 I tried no contact for 2 months and then tried to “reconnect” and was texting with him for a few months but he still didn’t want to see me or really talk like we used to. He was initiating texts to me but it was always very superficial. He wasn’t the same person anymore to me he was treating me like a stranger and his messages were so inconsistent (like once a week maybe) I feel like he must be dating someone else and doesnt want to tell me. I finally asked him not to contact me anymore 2 months ago and he said “ok” but he started sending breadcrumbs again after a month. I do like hearing from him but its also keeping me stuck mentally hoping he will be asking to see me soon and want to reconnect and apologize to me and work on our relationship but I am afraid he will never do that too and I will be alone and miserable forever because nobody will ever be as good as he was to me. I am attractive. Men ask me out pretty much every day but finding another man as good as my ex to me is like finding a needle in a haystack. I wish he felt the same about me. I thought we had something special but he wasn’t even willing to tell me his real reasons for ending it with me. He claims I did nothing wrong “this is about him” He claims he loves me he just cant be in a relationship now. He has to be dating someone else is all that makes sense to me. None of it makes sense

I’ve learned, when the ex breaks and comes back…don’t focus on the relationship. Just have fun with them, have amazing sex, and just keep it light. Remain focused on yourself. Talking about heavy shit too soon or being emotional, or talking about why you broke up…will push them away again. You want them to start associating you with good feelings again. I’m currently in this right now, and as the weeks go on…I notice her letting her guard down more and more, her being more responsive, her being more submissive…simply because I’m just focused on having fun and having great sex.

It happened several times with 2 other girls and I just couldn't stand the pain and disrespect and I just gave up. There seemed to be no remorse or regret.

If your struggle was communication with your partner you need to work on that. 30 days or 3 months or whatever your NC period is time where you could work on this. If you can communicate your needs better you increase the potential for a healthier relationship. If they don’t return then you raised your value by being able to communicate. I’ve been reading non-violent communication a language of life and have found it very insightful. I don’t know if Coach will read this but do, would love to see suggestions for tools (resources, techniques) to utilize during NC to improve yourself.

Blocked my ex a few weeks after the breakup and never looked back. Time truly does allow you to heal and see the truth when you were initially blinded by love. So glad I blocked and moved on because he had anger issues and projected so much of his childhood/parents drama onto our relationship and it was exhausting to be with someone like that and give them multiple chances at my expense. Go no contact and trust me you’ll be fine :)

If only more people would do this. Most of these people's relationships were toxic but they're so stuck in the fantasy and only focused on the good times or what they thought were good times that they're ignoring all the bad times and incompatibility. People need to emotionally separate them selves from the relationship to see how bad it really was.

[@norswil8763]

Well you’ve done it completely wrong, you’re not supposed to just take them back you’re supposed to make them work for it a bit. Reconnection is slow, you say you’re open to it and you start catching up - if you just jump back in they haven’t felt like you were a challenge and will leave again because you were too easy, which is needy. Be a man who demands respect and they won’t leave.

@@norswil8763 it doesn't matter how you take him/her back, the fact that he/she left you for someone else and when she/he came back and you still there waiting for the ex, will make your ex think you can't do better and that is exactly why your ex will never respect you again

[@norswil8763]

@@mabroukukasha5041 it actually does matter, it matters a lot and it’s the difference between looking like the same person they lost attraction for and someone who grew and stands with more value. Take them back slowly and with hesitation, if you take them back immediately that is needy and suggests you’ve done nothing but wait for them. You might be projecting. Not all exes leave you for someone, if it was a quality love connection the motivation is typically a loss of attraction, behaviours, attachment clash or something you’ve done to drive them away - a lot dumpees have denial about why they were dumped which makes it hard for them to grow and level up correctly. If your ex leaves you for someone else, monkey branches then walk away, that is disrespectful and that person isn’t worth your time. Simple.

Been watching these videos for the last 3 months since my breakup of an 8 year relationship. I have some bad news. After going through a lot of these stages reconnecting and being shut down I had a 2 hour talk with my ex and she told me the feelings are completely gone and that right now there is no chance for us. I say right now but I can tell in her mind it is forever. The clarity helps in some ways but it is also devastating to think someone can throw away 8 years and not have a good reason other than I just fell out of love. Part of me thinks that with time its possible she could fall back in love but I don't have any faith that this is likely. The way she spoke, like she was indifferent to everything having to do with love or feelings for me is traumatizing. She says she still loves me as a friend and that Im not losing anything, that its just changing, but I am losing a lot and I know its BS people say to make things feel better.

[@ArtimasStr]

I broke no contact after 3 weeks, I left a voicemail. She told my sister at a show they both went to that she still thinks about me and she isn’t seeing anyone or talking to anyone and only downloaded tinder as a distraction. She texted my sister after my voicemail and told her she doesn’t feel like I am her person and she doesn’t see a future with me or me around her family and all this, said she doesn’t think I am what’s best for her and she admitted she isn’t good at communicating, she says she knows I’ll move on and heal in time.. I was absolutely crushed hearing it. I don’t think she’ll ever be back or reach out to me. It’s back to no contact for myself. I mean I really hope we can talk again in the future but idk at this point, just eats at my soul. She told my sister the voicemail I left gave her anxiety. Really sucks. Idk if I really will “move on” from her as she was great, I didn’t put in as much effort as she did so she left. I am needing to fix myself and become better than I was.

I sincerely think not talking about getting back is bad idea. If they dump you, it is them where they have to work themselves back to you. They have to work to break down that wall of mistrust they created when they dumped you and they were willing to lose credibility with you. Because if that talk never happens, history will repeat itself and they will end up leaving you again, anything from a few months to a year’s time.

[@SirenaSpades]

I agree. Especially since the dumper has always discussed what was wrong or whatever needed to be fixed.

In my opinion, you are the only person who can decide "when to move on". For me, it came (gradually) after 3 months of no contact, but really 5 months before I was really open and available. (It's been 11 months of NC, though we have seen each other in social events ten times. Nothing more than eye contact.). If you haven't moved on after 6 months, ask yourself "What am I getting out of this -- putting myself and my life on hold for so long?". Because you holding on for so long does *nothing* for your ex-. It doesn't increase your chances of getting back together. Best wishes.

Then within two weeks the silly arguments started again. He gave me the silent treatment because I did not text him goodnight one night. In the end it all felt too much so I broke up with him because I felt I had no choice and almost like that is what he wanted me to do but it was not what I wanted at all. I miss him so much.

I would reply but would also let the convo die quickly and never initiate a new topic. She asked to meet up "as friends" in early April, and we did, and rekindled all the romantic feelings like no time had passed, and had sex. For another week after that we acted like we were back in a relationship, but without labels. Then she became distant again, and said she was right the first time and we should remain broken up. That broke me. I went NC again and we haven't spoken since. 37 days later she reached out asking for a casual hookup. Against my better judgement, I drove to her place and we had sex. Again, it's as if no time at all had passed. She blurted out immediately how much she loves me, and misses me, but reinforced again that we can't be together. It's been 4 days since, we haven't spoken since that last hookup. I have no idea what she wants, what she's thinking. I feel so helpless and powerless.

Reading all these. I understand the breakup is tough. But let’s be real. Avoidant behavior is a pathology. These people are sick. Why not educate them. And encourage them to get help. Most won’t because they are too arrogant and prideful to actually admit that they need help. My ex was like this and we broke up three times finally under why and I understood attachment theory and I explained it all to her. She did not get it right away, but she was aware that she had something wrong with her and it wasn’t me. So we are both making efforts to get to a therapist and try to fix this because we’ve had a five-year relationship that was a very intense and very good and very prosperous until. Of course you know they turn away. I don’t believe you get dumped. You should just keep getting dumped and stay away. Go talk to the person. Tell them that they’re sick and this can be cured and it’s not this is mental illness. It does not require any medicines. All that requires is some talk therapy. So if you want to save your relationship, I suggest you give them time and when you think it’s appropriate bring this up say hey honey you’re sick and explain the whole situation because this is an illness.
