we stayed in touch after the breakup because it was too hard to let each other go. In the beginning it gave me comfort knowing that she was just a text away. But lately it doesn't feel that way..I text her when I miss her but I still feel a void. I realised that the person I miss isn't here anymore. there's a stranger in her place. I was clinging on to a memory. i don't think staying in touch is a good idea. Maybe I should let her go.

i remember when i finally noticed that too. the comfort wore off and i just felt more empty after talking. it’s hard facing that shift but you’re not wrong for trying to hold on.

i did the same thing. kept texting my ex just to feel close but every reply felt like some random person. pissed me off that i was begging for scraps from someone who didn’t even feel like the person i loved anymore.

No contact is the only way to move on and heal.

i did the same thing, it jst hurt me in the end and made the deattachment process way longer, but maybe we have to move at our own pace and things happen for a reason too, dont be too hard on yourself
