    You are needy and need mega attention. I feel sorry for him and you. Throw out that machine and get a life.

    When someone is an important part of our lives for a long time, it's hard to let go, because we're so accustomed to their presence and interest in us. But you need to listen to the nonverbal message he's sending you and try to move on, as he has done. Now that you have more free time, try to re-connect with friends and family. They will help to fill the void.

    Its not that you can't, its just that you don't want to.

    Quit focusing on him and go find somebody new.

    Also, to break your habit, try going three days without texting anyone.

    another hint - when you feel the need to text him, send the text to yourself instead.

    That all sounds like what happened to me. I just turned off my phone, forgot about him by hanging out with other friends and not bring my phone to be tempted.

    sophie is that you??? man. the dude was probably sick of the constant updates of your life when he was actually seeing you, now he has to put up with them once you've split? i went through the exact same shit, every morning i would wake up with a text. and it done my head in. then it continued after i dumped her, and i was literally like, and you are telling me why? i dont fucking care if you bumped into one of my friends last night, why is that news??

    you arent a 12 year old girl i assume so move the fuck on. quit pestering him. it was an attention and insecurity thing with my ex, im pretty sure it's the same with you - it's a very annoying trait to have, kind of pathetic actually.

    please grow up now and move on

    well my case is different iam usually to proud to text my bf he is constantly texting me and i get tired of it i usually erase his text messages so i wont be tempted to bother him u know try to give him some space and the more you give your bf space the more he gets desprate and wonders what ur up to. therefore you must try to do activities exercising is a good way and hanging out with friends to..... a guy that does not text you or want to talk to you is not interested in you that is a fact i know is hard but you deserve better than that!!!!! best of luck =)

    As long as he doesn't get a Restraining Order against you, it's harmless. One day you'll snap out of it and realize that it's just a bad habit and you no longer feel a need to keep texting him. Your eyes will blink open and you will see the sun. You will slap your forehead, and say,

    "Why, bless my soul, Brer Rabbit! It's the dawn of a new day!"

    (Your exact words may differ.)

    Take his number out of your phone first of all. Second, find someone else, a close friend you can talk, chat or txt to. Third, find a hobby to get interested in to help take your mind off everything. It will get easier, good luck.

    you remind me of my best friend. you should stop texting him but i know that you won't. The sad fact is that only time will heal the wounds. It may take a year or three months. It doesn't matter what i tell you to do, you will do what you want anyway. One day you will realize that you don't feel the same way towards him or you will meet someone new.
    And you can still be friends with him but chances are you won't want to. It's hard to be friends with someone you have feelings for. I think after you have absolutely nothing but platonic feelings for him should you attempt to be friends.

    You need to listen to the clear message he's sending you by not responding: "I'm not interested any more." I know it's hard, but you aren't achieving anything by continuing to text him except annoying him, which is no way to get him to think favorably of you. Time to move on.

    Just continue as if he actually was paying attention to you, and get used to it.

    I had my ex who left me try to force herself into my life, she's been trying for ohhhhh 12 yrs. Though we haven't spoken in 9 she tried again a few weeks ago. In my case she still had hidden feelings but decided to make a compromise and leave me for a better off man. If you left this guy you should leave him alone, you will just give him the wrong idea and he will eventually despise you.

    Get over it and stop.
    You're only being viewed
    as pathetic and desperate.
