Why i didn't reach out to him this time

Author

My daughter asked me to reach out to him to get a password for a streaming service he has. Before I wouldve jumped at the chance to unblock him and text him and used the excuse of "well im doing for my daughter",but I didnt I asked her to send him a message from her phone and ask him and explained I couldnt break contact part of me really wanted to but I wouldve relinquished the power I fought soo hard to aquire im starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel🌄 today was such a productive day i hardly thought about him i did catch myself saying out loud how much I miss him. I reached some of the goals I set for myself today,its little progress but its progress and right now holding on to that motivation is what is giving me hope and getting a step closer to the day where I dont think about him at all and be ready to move on 🙌🏽

when you caught yourself saying you missed him today, did it feel different than before, like you were missing him without feeling pulled to go back

protecting the peace you worked so hard for. i had to learn that missing someone doesn’t mean i need to reach for them, sometimes i just had to let the feeling pass.

I think its the hardest part for me I could literally feel him hugging me and I miss it soo much my heart still aches but going fully no contact has really taken me through it 💔

thank you I cried after posting this the urge to break no contact after this was overwhelming but I resisted even if it hurt me

when i had a reason to text my ex and i used every excuse i could find because i missed him so much. choosing yourself in that moment takes so much strength
