i want to break no contact so badly but i know it won’t change anything and will probably just make him resent me. his last text to me was “i get missing what we had and i care about you sm, i really hope you’re okay. i think it’s probably best for us to keep a little space for right now though so we can both move forward”
so i know it’s over for good. it’s just so painful bc i can’t help but wonder if he’ll ever think about me in the future. we are so young but i think a tiny piece of my heart will miss him for the rest of my life.

i broke no contact once after a message that sounded almost exactly like that, and all it did was reopen a wound that was finally starting to close. the part where you wonder if they'll think about you years from now, yeah, that haunted me too
you want to reach out because you genuinely think there's something left to say, or because you're hoping to feel close to him again for just a moment?
lovely I’m sorry, I’m in a similar place to you right now and it’s not fun :( he’s the one that ended it and he’s saying he cares yet I know deep down I can’t do anything to fix it. you’ve got to stop playing the highlight reel of the relationship and remind yourself of why it came to an end. when my bf dumped me it was completely out of the blue and I didn’t expect it and I came up with some many reasons to fill the void until i realized that our relationship maybe wasn’t the best going forward, I’m also on the younger side like you and you just need to remember we’ve got so so many years ahead to find ourselves and meet new people. don’t let one person cause yourself to not love in the future. don’t let your heart miss him but allow it to hold onto to the memories and the good times, and allow grief and growth to happen simultaneously, you’ve got this! 🫶
Time heals and eventually you will be glad you didn't reach out. Always remind yourself that Change isn't possible especially since you probably thought about every possible solution. it sucks but sometimes it's better and less painful to let go. Do it for you; the person who has been with u through everything.
that last statement i feel deeply. it hurts the ache that just lives in my chest.
I keep reminding myself the why, and that if I do what will either of us gain from it?
ask yourself what will you get out of messaging him if he wanted to he would communicate is a two way street
