Misc Does the "no contact" rule work? - Page 7

God of Thunder · 11:39 AM

We've all had those breakups! The ones you didn't see coming, or the ones you did and didn't do anything about it! For whatever reason though, your friends, family, and everyone else always seem to say...

"Do NOT contact them, and in time, they'll come running and begging back"

This always seems strange, however, I think it generally holds true. Once you're gone, you start to mean more to that person. Once you know longer think about it, they tend to come flying back.

Do you all find this to be true or not?

Does the "Asking For Personal Advice on Chiefs Planet" rule work?

Only if people take it.

How are you coming along on my advice to convert to a Chiefs fan?

I'm trying man but it's hard to change. It seems like one Bronco is too many and a thousand aren't enough.

Lots of good advice here, especially the ones that tell you to leave it alone. I'll repeat one thing that was said. It's best you find out now instead of after there was a ring and kids involved.
I will tell you that romance with an ex rarely works. There's too many hurt feelings and unanswered questions to bury. Since she's been lying to you over the last few months, would you ever be able to trust her again? If you do do the horizontal bop again, how do you know she isn't cheating on another guy?
Let her go and be glad you have your freedom. There's a good woman out there just waiting for you. Forget the liar and move on.

You should have really posted a pic, and still should.

Just sit in your car outside of where she works. When she leaves work follow her home and everywhere else she goes; staring out your window at her at all times.
This will show her how much you care, and that if you can't have her no one can.
Girls like that.

I would think there are ways he could have just accidently left a copy here or there

He emailed pics to his girlfriend's mom, her boss and a few other co-workers at her work, a few friends and her as well. Rather graphic pics.

Lasted a week.

I have pics like that, but they're NOT getting posted......they're not that graphic though.

The work thing was too much. He should have just stuck with the family and future BF>

We would have nailed him harder but the lawyers for both sides left a lot to be desired for evidence for their sides case.

Did she cheat on him? I doubt it matters legally, but it's probably a mitigating factor for the jury.
