Should I block him?
| Tue, 02-26-2008 - 12:50pm |
I'm in a bit of a rut. Still wishing and hoping he will call or email.
It's been 3 weeks of no contact.
I am wondering if blocking him will help? I realize he hasn't even TRIED. But, maybe if I don't give him the option I would feel more at ease? I would KNOW I wouldn't hear from him. So, maybe that would help me move on?
Just a thought. What do ya think?
I SHOULD say (eventhough it's probably obvious) I would still want to get back with him down the line. After I finish my counceling, he moves back home, etc. So, blocking him may be stupid?
Ugh! I wish I could have a constant thought...

Blocking has helped me in the past but more where the ex was ambivalent and continued to contact me even though I asked him not to.
But there is that aspect to it that you mention--that it frees you from constantly hoping he'll call or email
"I do believe that a guy who really wants to get back together will find a way to let you know that so I don't think blocking him would stop him if he really wanted to get in touch with you."
This is my sentiments exactly. I am a little worried that he will think "Oh, she blocked me. She must never want to talk to me again". But, who would stop at JUST THAT if he is trying to reconcile?
I figured I could block him temporarily as a way to "free" myself. Then, unblock him when/if I have healed. I think I just might.
Thank you so much for your input Sheri. You are always very neutral and thoughtful with your posts. We ALL appreciate it.
Any other reponses? Still a little hesitant.
