Title: Finally changed my number...
Post by: Aw511 on December 15, 2013, 06:03:16 PM
After 3 months of post relationship push pull I love you I hate you idealization devaluation contact no contact drunken harassment torture, I finally changed my number. I'm sad but I'm ready to move on. Our last contact which was via text, was cordial and provided me with a bit of closure (as much as I could have expected.) We are both relocating to different cities in the very near future and I realize our relationship is nothing more than an addiction at this point. As someone who has been chemically dependent in the past and recovered, I know that getting sober is extremely difficult, but if you can hang on and suffer through the horrible initial pain, in the end it's worth it and that's how I am looking at this situation. If I can just refrain from picking up the phone and calling him, one day at a time, eventually it will get easier, and the day will come when I will lay my head down at night and he will pop into my head and I will realize it's been days since I thought of him last. I never want to have to go through this again. Once is enough. Wish me luck on my quest for NC. You all provide me with a sense of hope that there is a light ahead and for that I am grateful.

Thank you for the support kallor and marinro7. I don't know what I would have done if I never found these boards!
