    Man, this site has helped me a lot so far. I’m 7 days into no contact and it’s been tough. Stopping texting someone abruptly that you’ve been texting everyday for so long is like cutting off an addiction cold turkey. But I feel like I’ve really been working to improve myself over the last week and I don’t think I would be able to work on myself the same way if I was still talking to/occasionally still hanging out with my ex. He was receptive to taking some time apart to work on ourselves and seeing if we can have a better/healthier/more mature/more committed relationship in the future. My only question is 21 more days is a long time. How is everyone else getting through it?! Any other tips or tricks anyones come up with?

    @paleo092 – His wanting to take time apart in order to work on yourselves is a good thing:) That means there’s some hope of reconciliation. You MUST be strong not to contact him at all during this time! Focus on YOU and improve the needed behaviors. I know 3 more weeks seems like a long time, but it isn’t. Just spend time with family, friends, church, work, and whatever you enjoy. Good luck.
