Can you contact your ex during the holidays?

Unless you have some court ordered reason to contact them.  You don't. What do you mean you don't?    You just don't.   I don't care if you are all alone, with no one around and you're looking to fill a void, you just don't.  There is no need.   Same goes for birthdays, etc etc.  Do.  Not.  Contact.  Them.

I might be older, but I still don't understand relationships

Last week I received a text from my best friend who had just bumped into his ex gf.  While he had  avoided contact with her, she has other ideas in her mind. It seems like no-contact did not allow her to move on as one would think, but rather meeting my friend sparked a fire within her.   This was her chance!   She hugged him, said that he looked good, and after the meeting she started to text him relentlessly.  She wanted him back, and while he did not want anything to do with her, there was no way she was going to accept the word "no". I started this blog years ago as as means to share information that I found after dealing with a bad breakup. The funny thing is that I rarely think of that person, and see that relationship as a basis of my own self trying to fit into a very square peg.    The common things that  I found online included no-contact, limited contact, ignoring someone for 6 weeks and then writing a letter.  Reading book...

Can you forgive a Cheater?

Nothing is more humiliating and heartbreaking then being cheated on, especially when you are in love with someone. Following up in a live chat at the moment, the question is: If someone cheated on you, could you forgive them? My take? You can forgive for yourself but not forget, and it is better to move on. Your life and those in it will be better off for it.

Why letting go could reset a Broken Relationship

Hi everyone, it has been a while.   A lot has happened that has changed my personal life, and I hope that one day that you too can finally say, I’m fine where I am. I have been looking at what people search for when their exes break up with them and of course it involves how to get your ex back fast. I want to tell you that unless you were silly one night and made a bad decision, you will not get your ex back right away.   It will take a while, and using the strategies of no contact or even low contact will work in your favor.  You need to be smart about it.  Letting your emotions decide rather than logic will only help the dumper believe that their decision was correct. I’ll give you a brief story. A few years ago I was dating someone who was funny, educated, handsome and very much an intellectual.   At that time, I thought that I found my match. After 18 months of a back and forth relationship,  I cut contact and walked away . No mess, no fuss...

It's Official, Most Men are Pansies

It's Official, Most Men are Pansies by Charles Tant, Republished with Permission http://www.charlestant.com Hi Everyone,    I may as well tell you up front that this may not seem to have anything to do with marketing...well, not in a way that would be obvious. This may require you to think a little to see the...  Oh nevermind all that. Let's just get into it. If you get it, you get it. If you don't, you don't.   I needed a new propane tank for my flame thrower, so I went to Wal-Mart yesterday to get one. Hey, don't judge. I have a right to own a flame thrower, just like you do. Hmm, should I get a concealed weapons permit for my flame thrower?  Nah, I'll pass.   Anyway, I went in the store, picked out the things I needed and headed to the check out at the lawn and garden department. I'm standing in line when the cashier, a young black girl, saw me. She smiled and said, "Hi!" The way she said it, it was as if she knew me and wa...

How to get your Ex Back in 100 Days

About 6 months ago I read a message board post about how she got her ex back in 100 days.  While this doesn't always work, I wanted to share some strategies with you briefly on how she is now reunited with a confused ex who really did need some space. 1- She defined the boundaries - When her boyfriend at the time was being distant and showing the classic breakup behaviors, she allowed it to happen for a few weeks before approaching him.  He said that he needed some time alone to figure out his life.  The constant badgering and lack of communication that deteriorated the relationship had put a heavy toll on his belief that the relationship could work.  When he finally told her, she did what we seem to forget.  She was classy, not crazy.   It was then that she made it clear on her feelings and told him that the door was open, the porch light was on and when he was ready to work things out she would welcome him back. 2- She went No-Contact- Yes it is poss...
