I'm no [Poor language removed] Miriam Stoppard mate but i think you did the right thing, the ball is in her court now, leave her be and wait for her to make the next move, give her a week if you can manage it, if she ain't been in touch by then phone her and ask her one last time if she wants to get back with you, if she still says she needs time then put the phone down on her without saying anything and get on with your life.
yup well said latch !!! i feel i done the right thing too.. sometimes it does take a hell of a kick up the arse to realise you are doing something so wrong and making a mistake !!
i feel happier now anyway knowing she knows exactly how i feel !! and i know it sounds sick, but hearing her cry was nice, cause it was a reaction... and i wasnt sure if i would get one or not !!
i done a similar thing myself a few years back with an earlier ex, not to the same degree but midway through the relationship i got bored, i didnt finish it i done the ultimate twatting thing... i just ignored her, strung her along , answered her calls on the odd occasion and wouldnt be very chatty etc...
i was going through a wierd time in life, all i wanted to do was go and see my mates, i came home from work and literally went straight their.. and was their all night !!
i dont think i seen her for a month, and in all fairness to the girl.. she took it !! although she did cry sometimes.. i cant remember 100% but i remember just not giving a [Poor language removed] over anything she done etc.. and one day i seen a message from some lad saying about meeting up with her etc, it kicked me up the arse big time and made me realise, i went down and had it out ..
it turned out they were just mates and talking about me and stuff but it woke me up !!!
I dont know what was going on in my head, because im honestly not like that...i would never normally treat someone like that ... so maybe its a similar thing, not making excuses but maybe ! ??
we sorted things out and although we didnt last, it was like it is with me and the current ex anyway, although we was together 18 months it wasnt the same connection etc.. She ended up finishing me about 6 months later but for different reasons, and yes i was bothered.. but not even close to my current ex!! She basically finished me because i was bored of not doing stuff so gave her an ultimatum and she ended it haha !!! i was shocked !!
oh well moral of the story is, sometimes everyone can go through rough patches and not realise what they are doing, sometimes too late, and sometimes you get a kick up the arse just in time !!
but thanks for your support most of you, ill keep it updated obviously.. now its high profile on this site lol
