I can relate to all the posts on here and would agree that letting go of someone is so hard. I am in a situation where I should walk away and have the clear signs that my ex is long gone, physically and emotionally but will I walk – NO. She is back with her old boyfriend and we remain as ‘friends’ yet I know I should break contact. I know I should walk away and I know that keeping her in some format kills me every day. She treats me appallingly a lot of the times, she is highly critical of me yet she plays games and keeps me with talk that she still loves me but cant have me now, and send me emails occasionally with how much I mean to her still. She admits she loves her fella but loves me in a different way. Why cant I wake up and walk?? I tried no contact and was so weak after 2 days that I contacted her! 2 days, that’s ridiculous. I don’t have a close set of friends and family so I have to rely on sites and self help. I don’t believe I have low self esteem but those that I speak to say that could be the reason I repeatedly go back for more. I check my mobile and email every 10 minutes and this drives me crazy. I keep my self fit and run and try to lead a healthy lifestyle but this infuriates me and I wish I could walk away and forget her. She is with someone else and I am history and I hardly hear from her now so why doesn’t my brain accept this along with my heart and walk away??
