How do you deal with break-ups
 

Since I'm going thru one now, advice is welcome.

So far I've
deleted him/and his friends out of my phone
deleted pictures/taken down our pictures
removed dates of importance from my pda
exchanged the ring I got for x-mas for a sweet new necklace
deleted the emails I've saved
changed my sn


anything else

Maybe have a conversation stating that you don't want to have anything to do with him?

Changing your sn sounds a bit extreme. There's a reason God gave us the block feature.

With all of that, are you concerned for your safety in any way?

I don't think I'm in any danger.

As far as the converstation, I really don't want to talk to him. I have nothing to say to him so I don't think it'd really do anything.

No contact for AT LEAST a month. He can get his stuff back after that time...but that's also what the Salvation Army is for.

Munchkin03 is right.

3 months preferably . . . or to put it another way, you can talk to him when you have no desire to talk to him again.

gotcha.

thanks for the advice.

Ah James and his ever sound advice :)

There was an article in the paper today, in fact, about how complicated break-ups can be with today's technology. It pretty much recommended a lot of the steps I've seen on this post.

Also in the article: A guy and his ex-wife were indicated as a "match" on a dating website that they had both posted profiles on.

Can you post a link to the article? I'd be interested to read it.

This sounds like the 21st century version of that stupid Pina Colada song.

Sure.

Hey Jon,

the link didn't work buddy.

Try again. There was an extra slash in the url. Should work now.

:( still not working. It's ok. I don't need to read the article that bad.
