I wrote here that we are talking again, my feelings are not as intense anymore, I don't feel what I used to feel. I knew that I had become detached during the no contact, I just noticed that he hasn't changed at all, that he doesn't understand what I'm saying to him and that I don't care that much anymore. I don't feel the need to explain to him anymore, to argue, I have accepted that he can't change and no one will change as long as they don't see anything wrong in what they do

If I can give you any advice, it's to stay in no contact! There's no point in going back, he won't change!! No matter how tempting the idea of ​​writing to him or answering him might be, don't do it, it's much better that way, you'll just be wasting your energy senselessly, don't ruin what you've built so far

I am more detached, but I still feel anxious when I receive messages from him, especially those off-topic, I know that soon we will no longer talk naturally, without pressure, and it is a little strange that he no longer brings me happiness when we talk, even when we are not arguing, he no longer makes me happy I told him these things, he got upset, but I was not interested

The attachment remained, but also the disappointment that he remained the same, that I no longer feel the same and that the fact that we talk or not, no longer makes a difference It is important to give yourself time, to process your emotions, not to rush, not to think about what could have been, it will not be as you think

I suffered for the image I created of him, not for him as a person. I care about him, but I am aware that he is not what I need, that he has done nothing for me beyond words, that he is not emotionally mature and that he will never be able to fight for me.

do you think the anxiety you feel now is more about breaking the final attachment, or about letting go of the hope that he’d eventually become who you needed?

what helped me was trusting that numb, quiet clarity. when i stopped feeling the urge to explain or argue, that was my body saying it was done. the anxiety around his messages was louder than any love left, and that told me a lot.

that slow detachment during no contact, then talking again and realizing… wow, they’re exactly the same. i wasn’t grieving him anymore, i was grieving the version of him i invented. that realization is brutal
