How to Avoid Texting Your Ex
Are you worried about caving in and texting to your ex? You may not have superhuman willpower, but there are some steps you can take to make sure that doesn't happen. Minimize your chances of pressing “send” by asking someone else to talk you out of it. Getting some distance from your ex--literally and figuratively--and keeping yourself busy can also help you avoid texting them.

1. Delete your ex's number. Erase your ex's number from your phone completely and you'll be less likely to send a text. If you try, you'll scan your contacts, not see their name, and instantly be reminded that texting them is a no-no

2. Text or call someone else
When the urge strikes to text your ex, reach out to a friend or family member instead. Let this person know what's going on and have them distract you from the impulse

3. Give your phone to someone else. If you're feeling particularly weak at any given time, surrender your phone completely. Hand it over to a friend or family member until the urge fades

4. Power off your phone in the evenings. You might find that you are able to keep thoughts of your ex at bay during the days when you're otherwise busy. However, you might be tempted to reach out at night when you're bored or lonely. If this is the case, shut off your phone for a few hours each night and spend time doing nourishing self-care activities instead. Do something fun with your time instead

5. Unfollow your ex on social media.

6. Avoid triggers. Gather all the movies, clothes, photos, and other mementos of your relationship. Trash or pack them away until you're emotionally ready to deal with them. Also, steer clear of songs, TV shows or other situations that might make you feel nostalgic

7. Put money in a jar when the desire strikes. There's no better way to break a bad habit than having to pay out of pocket whenever it happens. Each time you think about texting your ex, put a set sum of money in a jar. Donate the money to a friend or a good cause.

8. Stay away from your ex’s hangouts. If you're still running into your ex every now and then, you might give in to the temptation to text them. Don't frequent any of their usual stomping grounds until you've fully moved on

9. Skip the alcohol.

10. Remind yourself that it is over, and move on!

Lol. Not possible when you've him all up in your face every time. Just learn to leave with it like I did, with time, the memories won't feel so special again and they'll eventually slip away. smiley


I can't promise it'll be easy though. tongue

Replace her with the said doll if u can afford it bro. if not, hookup with others prettier and classier than her even without spending a dime if u play ur cards well. #streetupgee

Girl I gave everything up for hooked up with her ex and lashed. still on d verge of trashing the issue and putting it behind us, I discovered there were others including a dude she told me was just a friend when I saw d chemistry BTW em the day I met him. Did some digging and got concrete proof they were on a steady routine romp. confronted her after the discovery but dint reveal my findings, b1atchh denied, sh1t got excalated by calling her names. b1tch got all defensive by erasing every traces of me, blocked me on all socials and playing the victim card to those who intervened. if only they know i was tryna protect her by not revealing proof of my allegations thereby painting her credibility black.
Anyways i took my walk of shame just to protect her image. Activated 3 ive been keeping on a leash because of her and now getting steady, you can say ive been DEMONIZED, yes i have... b1atch been buzzing ma fone for a while now but i pay her no mind, why? #cuzimthebestsheeverhad and she lost that...
