Move the fuck on man. This was a small little relationship you had. Use it as experience for your next one, and improve the things you couldnt in this one. Do not pine over this. It is over.

>ignore her for 30 days

That's a myth used by breakup counselors to get you to buy their "secrets."

The truth is no contact works, but texting her in 30 days will do nothing 99% of the time and will actually ruin the results of your no contact.

What you need to do is say "hey sorry I got so emotional after the break up, I think a lot of other things were stressing me out too. It'd be great to see you again sometime, take care." Then NEVER contact her again. Not in thirty days, never. No social media likes, no texting, no contact in any shape or form. You should actually unfollow and unfriend her on all social media.

This worked for me and I tried the 30 days no contact, it wasted 30 days of my life. After going full no contact and moving on, dated other women, etc she texted me after three months passed saying she missed me and she wants to get back together.

Don't contact her ever again. If it's meant to be, she'll contact you. NEVER CHASE AFTER BEING DUMPED.

>>17978533

I'm planning to ignore her for about 45 days and then I'm going to text her as a friend. Then after a few weeks, I'll begin to call her. I want to repair what we used to have and I don't want her to go with Jacob because he is short, sleazy, and manipulative. What should I be doing?

>>17978545

Dude if she's seeing another guy and you keep pursuing her you're just going to push her right into his arms. You're being a weak little bitch. You got dumped and you're still chasing her? Also NEVER ask to be friends with a girl who dumped you. That's so pathetic.

Back off completely. My ex rebounded too and after two months of not hearing from me she dumped him. By you staying in contact with her while she's getting fucked by new men, you're just making it easier for her to move on.

Back off completely. You've been reading retarded guides that never work in real life. I recommend you watch this video:

She doesn't trust me and I don't think anyone would want to date me. I have a sort of a reputation and everyone except my closest friends just give me dirty looks. I'll follow your advice and see what happens

Dude wtf im not reading all this shit

>>17978561

Your mindset is negative and beta. Focus on improving yourself and your confidence. You have a lot of work to do on yourself and she was right to dump you.

You're weak and needy. Start doing pushups and letting go of attachment you have to your ex. When you are worthy of her and impartial to the idea of her never coming back, THEN you'll be ready and around that time is likely when she will contact you.

If she texted you right now "hey let's meet up" and you are in this mindset of "nobody wants to date me I'm pathetic" then you're going to ruin your chances of reconciliation when she sees you during the meetup. You're just going to confirm to her why she dumped you.

>>17978551
she asked me to be friends earlier and I implied that there is no way I would want that. The other guy goes after girls who have just broken up and every single time he's tried, the girl gets back with the original boyfriend.

It wouldn't even be a real friendship, it'd be like prepping for a new relationship and everything would be focused on that.

>>17978568
I just figured it's better to be more detailed than vague

>>17978577

It doesn't work like that. If you never want to date your ex again, sure be friends. But if you think being friends is a backdoor to starting a new relationship you're in for some pretty severe heartbreak.

Do yourself a favor and move on. Stop contacting her. If she reaches out, arrange a meetup. It may take a few months, so don't sit around waiting for it. It also may never come, be prepared for that.

You have to move on or else you're going to have her on your mind 24/7. Your hair may even start falling out due to the stress. Fucking move on. If she loves you she'll come back. If not you'll find someone better.

I read your entire story op. Seems like retarded high school drama to me. You're both crazy and need to grow up.

To try and be positive though just let it go and move on, it's going to suck for a while but you guys weren't even together for that long anyway

Forget about her Timothy. You're being clingy, not attractive.
Posting her photos on your Snapchat story was fucking retarded. Why would you think that would make her want to come back to you?

As another poster said, the best thing to do is to back off completely. Don't send her messages or antagonise her by being a whiny little bitch

She may or may not get back with you (I wouldn't if I were her) but if you carry on like you currently are there is zero chance

Move on

>>17978602
I know it was retarded. I was pissed and I wanted to get back at her.

It did what I was going for, but it didn't make me feel any better afterwards.

Holy fucking shit kid, you have to be 18+ to post here

>>17978614
oh, is it because you never cry or don't trust your parents on certain topics

>>17978387

Every feeling you have for her is due to neural connections you've made in your brain. You developed a pattern of contact with her that literally restructured different regions of your brain, in much the same way a drug does to a drug addict. Take away the drug and what happens? Dopamine and serotonin decrease, cortisol increases.

The feelings you are feeling are very much real, but understand that with time your brain will rewire itself to get over her. And that is exactly what you have to do. STOP CONTACTING HER. You said Jacob and her were heading to her dorm. What do you think happened? Dude was probably balls deep inside her. Stop being her emotional tampon. Stop showing your insecurities to her. Grieve and cry, but you will get over it.

>>17978526
Yikes. You are one insufferable human being anon.

>>17978694

Everyone was once a stupid teenager in love. He'll look back on this and cringe.

Jesus Christ I've always wanted you anons to give more detail but this is a little over the top don't you think? Fuck it I won't judge.

Alright, so in review it seems like you're a big dumb idiot. And that's okay; I'll tell you from personal experience that a lot of guys and girls can be big dumb idiots after heart-tearing breakups and fights. Everyone can be a dumb-shit idiot if they put their mind to it and in the advent of emotional trauma your mind isn't really anywhere. What you need to do now is pack up your bags and go, because it's going to be your best bet to get this girl back and hopefully learn how not to be stupid.

And yes I'm indulging you right now anon; there is a chance you could get this girl back but I'm only saying it because I don't want to answer your "How do I kill myself" post on here in a couple days. Sometimes a little hope is all you need to not be totally retarded.

So let's get started. Follow what every anon on here is telling you to do: Back off, move on, don't contact her, don't follow her on anything, don't involve her in your life in ANY WAY. You've pushed and pushed and pushed her away. You've made mistakes, texted her constantly, and for fuck's sake posted pics of her on your Snapchat? Alright, there are some girls in the world who will go fucking crazy over shit like that after a breakup. For some, desperation is attractive and sexy. For your girl, I can tell you for a fact it ain't. Shut everything the hell down and leave her out of your life.

What does this do? It gives you a clean slate. it lets you improve on what problems you had between you two. It removes you from having to worry and worrying means you suffer twice. If you don't you both push her away, and watch the love of your life give love to other guys. You've got problems anon, but so do we all. You've got time to fix them so fix them.

>>17978732

Good post, except for the part about giving him hope. He won't be suicidal. He got his heart torn out and he went to his father for help; he'll do it again once he realizes that whatever he had with her is done.

OP, you're going through hell, but it's temporary.

>Posting someone's nudes to spite them
You're a piece of shit, OP

>>17978732

And the whole being friends thing? Stop that shit. If right now you're in the back row of her life then being friends will get you seats in the front row and nothing is better than watching the ex you love love other guys.

Now let's be really real: you've got a ghost of a chance with this girl anon. Sure yeah, miracles may happen and even I, myself, ended up pulling off what I thought was impossible, but the honest to goodness best advice I can give is to prepare for nothing to happen and for this chick to be out of your life for good anon. She is gone. She is not your girlfriend or your friend or even your acquaintance anymore. She is just some stranger that maybe you once knew.

You need to pull through. Look back and say, "Hey what we had together was pretty good and I enjoyed it, but there were some things that were pretty awful and I'd like to not have to go through that again." So don't. Take what you screwed up and make it better. Don't have those problems again. She is gone. You'll have another chance with someone else maybe in a few months, maybe in a few years, hell maybe tomorrow you'll fall in love with some ten cent prostitute who knows. Don't screw up again because I don't want to write all this shit out for you again anon.

And hell believe it or not this is also your best shot at being with this girl again. Funny how that seems to work?

Anon, shit happens. People make mistakes. Relationships are hard and never seem to get easy, but the ones that are worth it make doing the hard things, well, worth it. I won't say you'll be back together and in love in a few weeks, or even a few months. Sometimes it may honestly take years. You gotta take this time to atone for your mistakes and be the better anon that this girl wishes you were.

And take this all lightly. I'm just another anon who went through similar shit. I'm no professional. I could be 100% wrong. You know this girl, you know will work and what won't. Take your time my boy.
