Hey Craig good evening I love ur coach and it make redirect myself after breaking no contact rule..I saw many coaches online who says I have to ignored my ex for one month even though she contacted me and I did DAT..my ex text me she miss me four days after she brokeup wit me and I ignored her and I contacted her 30 days after that but she did not reply my message.

Craig My ex unblocked me from whastapp after 1 month and 10 days of being blocked.. 5 days before her bday. Did she want me to wish her happy bday? Was it a test to see if i remembered and still cared? Or just to reinforce her ego if i did? I almost texted her but everyone told me not to so i contained myself..but now i live in regret a week later..thinkin she was maybe giving me a chance to talk to her..but now i lost it for good.. thoughts?

@isaacsmith3529 4 года назад

I’ll never let an ex back, unless they work for it, if you ‘dumped me’ you best believe you gonna regret it. Ain’t no how you been bullshit, give it back to them as they left you, probably entertaining other people. They ain’t shit anymore.

Look, go NC immediately for many reasons. 1) So you don’t say the wrong things and burn bridges you may need to cross later. 2) So you don’t look desperate/clingy...bc humans being what they are will either not give a shit or take advantage of it. 3) Your ex broke up with you, so they deserve no more of your time. 4) This will re-attract your ex if there’s still hope. People are intrigued by mystery and selfish in nature so when they don’t hear about you they will want back in your life. 5) Finally and most importantly, it’s about healing yourself. Have the attitude of “either they’ll return or they won’t” but don’t wait on them. You may miss the moon while waiting on the stars.

@SanDmaNTheFreakTrucker 5 лет назад

J J My opinion says it was a test. You did good by staying NC and letting her reach out. Sometimes women do that just to see if you’re still available for them...and the minute you start whining you lose them again. She might have wanted the birthday wishes, to see if you remember, but if she was reaching out hoping to reunite she would have opened up to you and made that obvious. Listen to your gut. Good luck and stay NC. As a man, you must be emotionally stronger than her. If she still loves you she will cave man. If not, you may not even care in a few months and might be someone better for you.

@SanDmaNTheFreakTrucker 5 лет назад

unguided728 Don’t do it. You should make a conscious decision avoid anywhere she might be for awhile until you’re strong enough.

He has left once two years ago the reach at two months. Then dissapeared for two more months. This time, it was me who broke up on July 3rd. He was living a double life. He having dinner with her once a week. He sleep at her house every other Saturday. While I was sleeping at his house 4 and 5 nights a week. I walked out on him; he didn't reach. I reached on August 12. He has moved from his house is changing jobs. After talking with him. He said there were things he need it to have time to think. I figure he is full of it!

She said she thought I was with another female. I said no, that I went cold on even my own family. She said ok, then cut our convo short and told me she will call me back and never did. So after a week, I texted her and she was cold and took forever to text me back. Now she on a vacation to her hometown In Dominican Republic. She hadn't call me or texted me, but like a pic or 2 on my Facebook. Last we texted was the next day when she left on her trip, I wished her a safe flight and to have fun out there, she replied 3 days later with a 😘 emoji.

@hellochips 5 лет назад

I think the issue isn’t whether they’ll come back - a lot of people do - it’s more that 1) they do it when it’s too late and you’ve finally moved on and don’t want them back and 2) it’s often complete rubbish and for selfish reasons, consciously or not. I think sometimes (and not even deliberately) they just wanna see they have power over you still and that you don’t hate them, which is the message you convey if you reply sometimes. Especially me as I’m unlikely to ignore somebody because that’s my nature and I think it’s rude to ignore. My problem is how to navigate contact after since I hate this grey area crap. I get they’re afraid of rejection but I’d have more respect for a straight up ‘I miss you and I made a mistake, if there’s any chance for us, would you meet me for a coffee so we can talk things over’. I’m far more likely to reply to that than some innocuous ‘hey hope your cat is good’ or something since I’d be sceptical of that. Anyone agree with me or am I alone in thinking that lol

@gmoney5173 5 лет назад

I think the relationship really dies when the person who got dumped finally moves on. Because once the dumpee moves on, like you said, they don't want their ex back because they have grown and developed so much as a person because of the break up. The saddest part of a break up is knowing that in order to get your ex back, you need to move on... But when you move on, you won't want them back.

Great info as always coach, didn't have a choice but to watch this one, as my ex had been reading out, but with nothing of substance. It's been just a selfie or a meme here and there, even after I told her to not contrast me if she wasn't willing to talk. Not sure how willing I am to get back with her, so I don't think that its worth a coaching session, but it really does show all the nuances with everybody's personal situations.

I’ve been applying to a ton of jobs, learning new things like playing chess, trying to keep my room clean, follow through with tasks, doing things without any arguing with my parents, been walking my dog with my mom everyday to build a stronger bond, talking to more friends, etc. At this point, I’m not desperate for him and know I deserve the best. I did feel like he was my soulmate but I’ve seen things he’s doing that idk if I like anymore. So I’m like “if he comes back, then great. If not, I’m okay!!”

Victoria Nike I recently had an ex contact me and pursue me after 4 years of zero contact. She thought I hated her, but I didn’t. I never stopped loving her, I just walked away and let her go. I never imagined I’d see her again. We hit it off, it was incredible. We were so in love and for a while I was still in shock that she was back in my life. I assumed I’d never see or hear from her again. You have to let them go and if and when they feel like they let something special go, they WILL come back.

@victorianike4497 5 лет назад

In my case the ex who returned and I have become f***friends. He is trying to make me forget the other guy, the long distance one (I still miss him and cry a lot). Ex# 1 usually says to me: 'Why do you cry? Remember how much you cried long ago? What was the use of that? I'm right by your side mad about you!' So the best thing, as J Brazo says, is to let them go...probably they will come back! Good luck everybody! :D

@sshuteandrew 5 лет назад

I wouldn’t consider taking a man back who left me for another woman. His cycle will most likely continue and he’ll leave you heart broken and alone again. People treat us the way we allow them to treat us. Don’t give either of them the chance to come back into your life and disrespect you again. Recognize your worth. They made their choice to leave. Let them both live with it.

@Thomas_Curiel09 5 лет назад

I’m going through a divorce after being married for 7+ years and she was all mine as I was her first love and first everything. You guys provide me with hope and if letting go is the best thing for them to come back, at this point what’s there to lose. I didn’t want the divorce but obviously it only takes one to divorce another. No amount of begging or pleading got me anywhere. No amount of trying to get her to seek the lord with me or going through marriage counseling worked for her and she’s in the mindset of following her heart and giving up on me and our marriage. To add, there was no infidelity, not lying, no gambling, no addiction to porn, sex life was amazing, but my one flaw, I said hurtful things that I didn’t mean in only SOME (not all) arguments we had over some petty stuff. She’ll say all sorts of stuff like my mental issues being the problem as she doesn’t want our kids to develop them through genetics, having no unity(which is a lie), and not being compatible (which how are we not compatible if we’ve been together for 7+ years and we’re madly in love once before this process). I feel compatibly is thrown around like candy yet just because you have some different likes doesn’t mean your not compatible such as her liking country music and I like metal. I swear she would say we’re not compatible after just different music tastes. Anyways, it’s good to hear you guys get your lives back. Hopefully the love is stronger the second time around and you live happily together forever.

@vince5288 5 лет назад

Interesting video as always! Would it be possible to have one about what to expect from an ex (dumper) according to ther attachment style? meaning is an anxious or avoidant more likely to reach out than a secure person? My ex is an anxious. i'm a bit avoidant. She told me that she met someone else but she reached out after 7 days of break-up to which I replied politely without being eager. I haven't heard from her since then (3 weeks ago). I'm wondering which type of attachment style is more likely to reach out...

@vince5288 5 лет назад

Ok, I reply to my own message ... I'm curious to have other people inputs though. I THINK that if the dumper is an ANXIOUS type and you (dumpee) AVOIDANT then the dumper may expect you to reach out later on (because they think you neglected them during the relationship). Not reaching out would prove them that you don't care about them after all. BUT that we should obviously reach out without being eager at all. I just spoke to an ANXIOUS friend who told me that she waited years to have her ex (AVOIDANT) reaching out for her whereas he was also waiting for her to reach out. They discovered that when they accidently met years later. Every situation is unique as Craig says but I tend to think that ANXIOUS people may be a bit less enclined to reach out if they are dumper.

Hi coach Kenneth it would mean alot if you reply to this So after my ex-dumped who happens to be bisexual, I was begging and being annoying and even bad mouthed her, she told me I would never forgive you and told me to get out of my life, my ex later then blocked my phone number and started dating someone new 2 days after she broke up with me so I leave her alone by doing no contact as 1.5 months go by she unblocked my phone number and texted me telling me the person who she dated a girl broke up with her, she ended the conversation by saying lets talk later so I just waited and as a day go by i texted her again saying im worried about you and I hope you're doing fine she then just left me on read. what is the reason for her doing this??? she haven't blocked me again tho, I just decided to give her space again because she's still feeling sad at the moment.

My husband broke up with me but he's still goes home every day. We are still living in one roof but we don't talk anymore. And he changed his status on facebook saying that "in an open relationship" - it really hurts but i pretended not to be. I ignore him since we broke up 3 days ago. I don't know how can i move on if i can still see him everyday, i miss him sooo much that this feeling killin me everyday . What will i do? I don't know how long i will survive this kind of set up.

Hi there can you please help here please... What does it this mean when the person block you to all the media, what's up, unfriend you on Facebook for couple of months after break up then unblock you after a while of no contact. She block me from last year around May when she decided to replace me with someone else for her reasons of church issues but earlier last year December when I went through my what's up contact I find her unblocking me so I had no idea why did she doing that. Should I start her I mean talking to her or I should keep on doing my no contact rules. Please help me.

For the past three months whenever me and my wife had an argument she will tell me she don't want to be with me anymore. Last Thursday we had an argument and I slept off and when I woke up in the mid night she has pack up and gone. She came the next morning to pick up the rest of her things and I tried begging and tried to stop her from leaving it almost lead to a brawl I couldn't control my emotions. I cried and she told me she is done with me. She insisted that we go to the bank to split up the money we have been saving, also she separated our phone account and changed her number and told me I will never hear or see her again. Its been four days no contact and I haven't heard from my lovely wife and is killing me.

@alpamomo 5 лет назад

Hey Craig, I was thinking why sometimes an ex would try to make you jealous. Obviously they expect a reaction but why even do it in the first place. I feel that they are testing you but exactly what reaction they would expect? They care enough to do it so they are still not over you I guess.

@global2765 5 лет назад

In my opinion yes. Why bother to make someone jealous if you have no interest.

I've been doing NC since Dec 17 with a relationship that was roughly ~2 months. The relationship ended the weekend after Thanksgiving (Nov 29), but she continued to text me casually for a few weeks after until I stopped replying on Dec 17 and returned her spare key to her place. I feel like because our relationship was shorter, that NC won't be as effective. Any thoughts?

It’s been 5 weeks since the break up and while I don’t want to move on in case she comes back, I’m resorting to finally letting go because the pain is just too much to bear. Holding onto hope has made me see things as good signs when really they weren’t. Idk if she’ll come back but if I put my life on hold any longer idk how much longer I can hold onto my life. I don’t feel better at all, each day is harder and harder. Hopefully she realizes that she made a huge mistake.

I wasnt in N.C after my girlfriend said she didnt want a relationship anymore. But she would text me, randomly. "I seen you driving" , or a quick picture of herself. But after some exchanges I would ask her to get together. Then I'd get radio silence. This went on for weeks. Is this being strung along? I text her, "you are free to go my sweetie, I will let you slip away. I wish you the best"

Hey Craig, helpful video once again :) could you make a follow up video or something, about what to do if you have ignored your ex? For example, I have received several messages from my ex since the break up and replied to most of them, although once after a week or two of ignoring him. He ignored me sometimes as well, but always ended up sending me a message, even one about an item of clothing. However I recently ignored his last message as I was just too low to respond, and had no idea what to say etc.. but now I'm starting to experience lots of anxiety again and worry about what to do.!

My ex reached out after 2 weeks of NC. We have been broken up for about 2 months. She got a new guy 3 weeks after we split. She told me she feels like i have built a wall she cannot overvome. I did not address it but set a meeting with her the next day. We met and I told her that I cannot be her friend but can be her boyfriend. I won't settle for less. We talked for about an hour and I made a lot of mistakes during the relationship. I told her that she knows where I stand and she needs to make a decision. I asked her what she wants at least 4 times. She always responded with "I dont know" I told her I would give her space. After I left she drove an hour to her new guy and got drunk within a half hour of arriving (she drunk yexted me). I have not heard back from her since (4 days). She hugged me when i left and it felt like she did not want to let go. I figure i stay NC again until she reaches out. I feel like i took 2 steps forward and one back. Any advise or encouragement would be appreciated.

Been in no contact for the last month after a rough break up (I definitely prestered). A month ago my ex blocked me on Instagram and Facebook. One week later she unblocked me from instagram and began watching my stories about once a week (but didn't follow me back). A couple days ago she decided to follow me on instagram after I posted a story showing the dog of a woman I've been seeing. I'm confused what to do....let her follow me? Remove her? Follow her back? My gut tells me to just let her follow me but not follow her back, would that be ignoring her? Is this the right move?
