Why i stopped checking my ex's socials

i know that for a lot of people part of strict “no contact” is not checking socials. that was incredibly hard for me at the start of our no contact. i was checking instagram and snap score probably every day and it’s embarrassing for me to even admit that. but i made a promise to myself that i was going to slowly limit it by only checking once on sundays. so everytime i got the urge throughout the week id say “on sunday i can check”.

it’s been almost 75 days no contact. and today is the first sunday where i really feel no need to check socials and im not going to. this is a big win for me and im really proud of myself.

i love reading posts like this. was there one moment this week where you realized, "wait... i actually don't care to check anymore

checking my ex's profile so much that i knew their routine better than my own. the first day i forgot to look felt HUGE, and i knew something in me was finally changing.

I didn’t even no that strict no contact meant not checking socials but that makes sense. When I realised I was blocked on socials my heart broke all over again.
I think you’re doing a fantastic job. You’re being really brave and I hope I can be brave like you as well.
