When does the hope stop

Author

When do I stop hoping it's him every day time my phone vibrates? I know he's not coming back. Unless I initiate contact, he's not going to contact me. Why can't I get my heart and body to realize what my mind has already accepted? Every time I think it's him and it hurts when it's not.

I'm tired of giving him so much free space in my life when he doesn't want it. No matter what I do, I can't get him out of my head.

I wish I could erase every memory from my mind. The good memories aren't enough anymore

have you tried cutting off any triggers, like socials or photos, even temporarily? sometimes it helps your heart catch up to your brain.

He's only on Facebook and I haven't had one of those on years

it helped me to start little rituals—journaling every time i thought of him, just letting it out on paper. slowly it gave my mind a break from replaying him constantly

Exactly. I know he's gone. I know it's better for me that he's gone and yet, I can't let it go. I got a text while driving and I spent the entire drive to work hoping it was him.

just try to accept the reality,that you dont need him in your life and he doesnt deserve all the energy you waste on him instead try doing new things that help you discover yourself dont get stuck in the past,look forward to focusing on yourself not him🤍

I wish my ex was like you... one who is dying to hear from me.. but we sometimes people don't value us they always have some excuses for their behaviour no matter how much they are hurting us. I wish someday she realises what she was for me.

It takes time to let the hope go away. distract yourself on other things.
I also wish I could erase him from my mind. I am tired of feeling depressed and rejected.

i just keep on checking my phone with the hope that it's him ...but we have to let them go because one sided relationship never works and I m tired of trying...
