You need to ask yourself the important questions. Are you happy with this person? Or are you better off? ....some people are poison to other people, but most of us don't realize it until it is too late.

You should block him from your phone and delete his number. I know that it will be hard and it's not your fault that you want to talk to him but this will take time. I believe in you.

Remind yourself that you deserve better than that and keep it as your motive, every time you grab your phone call a friend instead of texting him.

1. Be social i.e spend time with family and friends 2. Delete his contacts and throw out things which reminds you of him eg : his pics,gifts etc 3.keep yourself busy with your hobbies such as reading books,listenin to misic etc ... When you are busy you wont get a chance to text him :)

Think about all the bad things he has done to you and ask yourself if he's worthy to get your text.

Once you break up with someone its nature to want to talk still, no matter how much it hurts. However, it is typically best to try and avoid it. Whenever you get the urge to text him, text a friend immediately. I've found that to be the easiest remedy.

I've been in this situation for days and what i did is intead of sending it to him, i send it to myself. Sending a message wont change anything anyway, it will just make you feel worse than ever.

That's actually how I became part of this website. I put my phone down, and look at me now! I'm so glad I did.

Block him out. Delete the past conversations with him. Take a new step forward. Instead of texting him, try texting a best friend.
