when you stop chasing, most of them text out of curiosity to find out why the dynamic has changed and trust me that’s a win for you….learned that the hard way and equally saw the results when they were the ones initiating contact after asking for space

thinking the silence would finally make them notice what they were losing. when they did reach out, it felt good for a minute, then i realized i was still waiting for their attention to feel okay.
i learned the hard way that giving someone space only helped me when i stopped doing it as a way to get a reaction. once i stopped checking whether they noticed, i felt a lot less trapped by the whole dynamic.
I learned that way too
when they texted after asking for space, did you actually want them back, or did it just feel good knowing they came looking for you?
I wanted them back but had to deal with my own emotions first and stop chasing
Its hard going from daily contact and closeness to waiting there initiation.
I am finding this is very hard to do, I see posts that describes how he acted which describes how I feel and I can't help but send them to him.
oh that might make things even worse
this is so true learned from experience ladies
