Me and my ex broke up a week ago, we were together for 4.5 years almost and were highschool sweethearts. We have been trying to do no contact but I have been basically breaking everyday atp. We had plans to go to a concert in a week from now regardless of the break up but now she is rethinking it because i’ve overstepped. She seems to be doing well and posting positive stuff and stuff abt not missing me lol. We talked last night and she said if I lock in on no contact this week she MIGHT think about going with me. I feel like i’ve made the situation worse and i resent myself for it but i still wanna make good and be friends at least because she was my best friend. What advice would you give to someone in my situation? I know the obvious answer is not reach out but what can I do to help her at least give us the chance to hang out?

How do you manage ?
i'd take her “MIGHT” seriously and give her the week she asked for. i know it feels unbearable, but if she’s going to want that concert or another chance with you, she needs to feel that you can respect the space she asked for.
if you actually give her this week without reaching out, do you think you could let the concert be about simply spending one night together instead of trying to make it decide the future of your relationship?
after 4.5 years, a week of silence feels brutal, especially when your ex was your best friend too. i used to break no contact because i was scared every quiet day meant i was losing them forever, and it only made me feel worse.
If she's alraady giving you something to do in order for her to even consider going out to the concert then I'm sorry but it's not looking very good rn.If she asked for no contact then give it to her, it's the best advice I can give you Causs I broke no contact consistently too lol😂and that lead to me and my girl breaking up because of it
