He’s taking care of himself — not you. It’s going to be hard for you to take care of yourself if he keeps lingering like this, and he’s not taking care of you by doing so, so my advice is to go cold turkey. If you want, you can send him one last text that says you won’t be accepting or responding to his messages any more because it’s going to help you to move on and that you hope he’ll respect that. And then do it. 🙁
Break ups hurt, but if you take care of yourself and surround yourself with supportive and healthy friends and family, stay busy and nurture the person you want to become, you’re going to do fine with some time. 😉
I hope that helps, and that you’ll follow me @AskAprilcom on Twitter and on Facebook at this link: [url][/url].
