I’ve been in no contact since August 4th. It’s been 21 days and I don’t know how to feel. We broke up on June 27th and it’s hard to believe two months have already passed.
It hurts that since we broke up he never reached out, it was always me, and since I decided to stop, he never looked for me again, but I guess that’s an answer too. It hurts not to be someone he misses. We spent 5 years together, and I don’t know if he has someone else and that’s what keeps him distracted, but I can’t get him out of my system. Every day I check his social media from another account, the first thing I do is see if he was online or not. I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m overwhelmed with the urge to get him back, but at the same time, I don’t think it’s worth waiting for someone who hurt me so much and hasn’t even given a single sign of wanting me back.

what i notice is you’re doing the work of holding on while he’s not doing anything. that’s a painful imbalance, especially after years together.
i felt that exact ache when mine didn’t reach out. it feels impossible to let go of like how can someone just walk away from all that. it made me question my worth too.
i remember refreshing his profile like it was my job. every green dot felt like a knife cause he was online but not talking to me. i hated how i kept giving myself hope when he was already showing me silence.
I saw a quote somewhere that said “if someone ghosts you, respect the dead and don’t disturb them”
the fact that "he never reached out" it means he never thinks of you. you might miss him and grieving, but for him it's just a normal day 🤷🏻♀️
