    Let me clarify. I did this video to explain how scary it is when your ex does reach out. It's very easy to get overexcited and make mistakes.
    I gave a few examples up front (one with how anxious and scared he was and one who made a mistake.
    In the actual email, the girl did not reach out. She replied to a reach out. He got very lucky because during his prior 2 reach out she ignored him. But then his anxiety caused him to send that string of texts which got progressively worse...

      The last time an ex reached out my response was, who is this? Dont let the neighbors see you going through the garbage after you take it out. You broke up for a reason, give an ex a second chance the same problems will resurface.

    I was cringing watching this video. I hope this guy gets his anxiety under control and is able to turn this around.
    By the way, just for people losing hope on their ex's reaching out, a girl a dated for only 4 months dumped me nearly 2 years ago. I was devastated. She met another guy and was due to be married this year. I've dated a few girls since. Well a week ago she added me on Facebook, and now she is reaching out. Seems she is single again. Due to Craig's advice, i've arranged a date with her for next week and she seems enthusiastic to see me. Don't lose hope people. Anything can happen.

    • @alleyboy2832
      @alleyboy2832 7 років тому +20

      Cheese Face yeah people need to realize if you play your cards right they can come back , I remember when I dumped girls I was having the time of life the first couple weeks , but then separation anxiety started kicking in and i ended up contacting them , space does create attraction

    • @cheeseface5843
      @cheeseface5843 7 років тому +24

      Alan Dominguez - It certainly does. Attraction grows in space. That's why if you're in a relationship and you haven't seen your partner for a while, you feel more attracted to one another. Obviously this girl has forgotten the things that turned her off about me, and is just remembering the good things about me. It's known as the 'fading affect bias' And to add to that, my confident and indifferent behavior is amplifying it. It really is about how you show up. As long as you weren't physically abusive to a woman, or cheated on them so much that it killed all trust, then they will almost certainly revisit the idea of being with with you again. From that point forward the outcome will depend on your behavior.

    • @alleyboy2832
      @alleyboy2832 7 років тому +6

      Ash Davis Lol me too! When he said he's expecting an invite, I literally cringed. 8 months is a very long time not to hear from them. When they finally reach out after that much time, you kind of have to start from scratch and rebuild a friendship. My ex has done similar things where it's months or a year even without contact then out of nowhere he comes on way too strong. It's not attractive in the least. It's the mystery that attracts us and that goes for all sexes.

The fact that you think someone else’s pain and anxiety from a relationship issue is funny, says just how shallow and disgusting you are. #relax

  • @BarbaraKrolOfficial
    @BarbaraKrolOfficial 7 років тому +61

    To be honest it's better they never reach out, cause what's the point? Asking for favor? Trying to be friends out of guilt? Or maybe trying to get info if perhaps you haven't screwed up yourself in your life? Then you end up getting sick all over again, upset, thinking and obsessing. They dump you then they should fuck off, nothing can be done. They will come to damage you all over and over again, if you let them. What can you do is just take care of yourself and stop wasting time.

I came on a little too strong wanting to talk about starting a new relationship rather than having a good time. I got excited because it's been a year.

I didn't expect to hear from her again. It was really dark couple of weeks. And then one day she sent me a message late at night, I'm pretty sure she was drunk. She said she was sorry and wanted to talk. This was 22 days later. We are in regular contact now. I'm matching her energy and not initiating much contact.

On day 106 she reached out again and ask to talk on the phone. We dated for 4 years and we broke up during the pandemic.. I thought we would get back as she mentioned she misses me and she remembered the good times. I'm ready to go back in no contact for a second time. To be honest, It doesn't matter if she calls me or she doesn't.

    Coach or viewers.
    if my ex reached out, it would be very difficult for me to respond nicely or at all, unless they apologised for walking out of my life and refusing to give answers and the disrespect toward me.
    I don’t expect to shake hands and walk away, but her behaviour post break up really took away any motive to even speak to her.
    I don’t think they deserve our effort to re-attract them if they use a break up as a hall pass, we speak asif our ex’s can do whatever they want and they have to rebuild and re-attract them regardless of their lack of effort.
    Unless you seriously deserved it, but in most cases, their actions post break up balanced it out, and now do not feel very positive towards her, and I believe if they don’t return the efforts and interest, then kill the conversation and move on. I can say it’s mostly women who think we have to bend a knee to them and they aren’t replaceable, well they very much are, and it’s off putting when they ignore you and act like a snobs. If anyone neglects you, and isn’t willing to fight for a relationship with you, then piss them out your life. Intelligence and loyalty is what’s important from both people.

But thank you for your videos theyre clearing up some things and easing my anxiety. Though I am worried that I waited too long to respond cause I haven’t responded for a week now

    Can you make a video on different responses we can send them for different situations you have encountered when they reach out. So we dont lose our shit and fail..

    My cat went missing a few days ago, and I posted about this on fb so my relatives would share. He texted me (after a week and a half of NC) about my missing cat. Hoping he’d be found safe but also adding he hoped I was doing fine.

    Would it even be an indirect/direct approach if we work together and we haven't talked in a while but they start a text off asking about work? The conversation went on a little bit about other stuff but it was about work for half of it.

    I know this video is years and years old by now lol… but I just have to say… I understand how you’re breaking apart these messages.. you’re right. Much of it is way too strong. Not at all where I would’ve gone with it. However… when it comes to deeming it all as “inauthentic”… idk about that. It actually sounds very authentic to me. Yes - it’s corny and over the top… but that’s actually exactly what makes it so authentic. It’s real. If it were smooth… plain… cordial and that’s it… maybe it would come off better.. but then THAT isn’t authentic. Then THAT may be felt or viewed as manipulative or played like a game to get a specific outcome.
    When we’re in the position that this guy is in… that’s our authenticity. We’re over sensitive. On guard. Anxious. Yes it can lead to some bad mistakes. But maybe it’s time for the world to wake up and realize that it’s human and if you want someone who’s real with you… their flawed imperfect self is what’s real and what should be loved. Playing a game and strategizing what to say is over planned and NOT who someone really is. They’re just playing a role to get to the trophy at the end. I’d rather have a woman be into me and my vulnerability than someone who wants a man who fakes his way with words.
    Doesn’t mean he’s not still coming on too strong 😅that’s very evident lol.
    But if she can’t understand the reality of how he feels about her and who he is, then there’s no way that she’s the one for him. Just my own take. You have the background, I don’t. But when we’re in the position of waiting and attempting to work things out… that’s what’s real. Working things out will feel awkward and emotional and make us trip up everywhere… but it’s real and as authentic as it gets.

    Could reaching out even be a “oh I pocket dialed you sorry”? That’s what happened to me. Long story short she broke up with me because after 6 months she said she still hasn’t gotten over her ex…

    this is a lot like my case, her was doing almost 100% and after so many years she just got tired, now she's with someone else and I think the big reason why it has been so hard to move on is the fact that I feel guilty more than wanting her , it's like by nature Everytime we mess up the first time we always want another chance.

    I didn't know what to say to my ex when he reached out after just 2 weeks or so. He asked how i was feeling and I read it and didn't reply. Now I'm stuck where I have a lot of regrets and apologies I want to get off my chest and have been thinking about writing a letter. Anyway, I feel bad for ignoring him because i watched some of these videos which say I shouldn't have ignored him! Any help?

    So, my ex blocked me. and then unblocked me cause I was curious one day and looked him up and he had unblocked me. I decided hell what do I got to lose so I added him back on social media. Anyways we made contact and I finally asked why he unblocked me he said “just seeing how you’re doing” what does that mean?

    Should I take my Ex reaching out about a loose end update (Transferring responsibility of the internet bill) as an opportunity to ask how she is? She is seeing a guy she lined up prior to breakup (1 month ago) Should I just say "Okay, thanks for the update. I trust you will take care of it" or try to ask about how she is doing in some way?

    I kid you not. Was just watching this video. No contact from my ex for two weeks. Just clicked into Facebook Messenger and I have a message from her... Not sure how to respond. Going to leave it while I think. I was extremely hurt by the break-up. I'm doing Ok now. Getting my life on track and working on me. Not sure how I feel about things going forward.

    Is it ok that I date while I'm waiting...cause she's been in a rebound relationship for 3 months now cause I never stopped communicating with her and she still watches my Snapchat and has always answered me back right away...and so I told her I still care for her and to contact me if she wants to try again...after I had fucked up being needy in the first 2 months...I recently met this new girl and just want to know if it's ok to date her for a while or if should decline so I don't forget my ex or hurt the new woman...would appreciate your opinion.

    My ex of now almost 4 months reached out a couple of times sending me funny memes and then asking me how to say certain words in my language because he is learning Spanish and Portuguese. He also asked if I wanted my stuff back , he Knew I was up near where he lives and asked if I wanted to meet up to grab my stuff . I couldn’t do it so I waited to respond and then told him I was already at home so he said maybe another day. Yest he sends me a random funny meme I responded with meow ... it was a cat meme. Well he opened the snap and didint say anything else. What is he doing here I’m so confused I don’t have hope but then I do. I don’t know how to feel. I’m trying not to overthink this stuff because I easily can. Any advice??

    @bellabong8862 4 роки тому +3

    This guy is hopelessly selfish and self-centered and she'd be better off blocking him. All he is focused on is himself and his own feelings. He obviously hasn't used the no contact time wisely to self-reflect on his part in the failure of their relationship and the changes he needed to make in himself to be a better partner, should he get a second chance. He isn't ready for a relationship with that girl or any other right now. I empathize with his pain, but he should leave her alone because he'd only make her miserable again and should work on himself and own his selfishness and fix himself first.

    What about when i have been in no contact for over 3 months working on myself, and she reaches out asking some random thing about a story she saw with my baby brother in it, then 2 weeks later again reaches out asking about how my family back home is, as there are some problems in my area in my country. I replied to both respectfully and to the point, i didn't freak out or act overly excited. However, the conversation died out, now i feel like shit waiting for the next time she messages, i have so much urge to reach out to her and ask to meet up but I am terrified it will push her back, I feel I am stuck and i do not know what to do. Please someone advise me.

    Oh dear this sounds like my ex, he runs and when he misses and feels lonely comes back to me sometimes too strong with yummies etc, No wonder how he has been seeing a friend/date... like him he projects what he gets... too much it hurts me because I can see some potential on him as he showed me , but I want to take things in a balanced level and he runs like crazy for moths and comes back in a fast speed and not to stay..
