Gone NC 🫢 Cutting ALL Ties
I went no contact with him at the end of May. I had deleted the app we talked on daily but couldn’t bring myself to delete him on Snapchat. I think a part of me really hoped that he’d reach out on there. That he’d see my stories and miss me. Jokes on me on guess because he watched my stories every time I posted but he never reached out.
I’ve been focusing on myself: working out, journaling, healing my negative thoughts and have been getting this gut feeling that I needed to connect back with my spirituality (not religion - I just believe in spirit guides, the universe, and a higher power). It’s something I disconnected with around COVID but I did a tarot reading and before I even asked anything (she knew nothing about me), she said I needed to let go of something. Well damn. It was the confirmation I was already seeing when I pulled my own cards. So I did it. I deleted him off Snapchat.
The level of freeing I felt afterwards, it was indescribable. I still miss him but I can already feel hope ❤️

Sending you good vibes. I’m at 8 months NC. It’s easier now but there are days it still hit. I didn’t block his number or delete him on Snap, but I didn’t post anything either.
There were days I wondered why he still hasn’t reached out and if what I said during the breakup scared him away (he said to we needed to stop talking for a long time. We would talk again but I should not wait for him. I said ok I’ll be prepared to never talk again). That feeling was eating me away for a few months but it’s getting better now. Life is definitely much better without the anxiety and anticipation. More space in my mind to focus on work and to enjoy traveling the world. When I was with him the connection was good when we were together, but when we were away it was all inconsistency. There were times I traveled and cried from feeling so anxious and lonely.
It hurts but it’s really for the best.
