Once you make the decision to start NC with an ex, what's the best way to handle it? As in, I know we don't owe our exes anything after they broke up with us but should we let them know that we won't be talking to them at all anymore as well as possibly the reasons why? Or, do you think it's best to sort of just go "cold turkey" with them & just sort of disappear like a ninja with zero explanation given?
My ex lately has been contacting me every single day even though I've told him I have zero interest in being just friends with him & I've asked him not to contact me ever at all unless he's actually serious about wanting to reconcile with me. It's like he just pretends he doesn't even hear me say that though as he just keeps on sending me these stupid "hi, hope you're having a good day" type texts. Sometimes he'll even text me "please call me" & then when I call him back he doesn't even answer or call me back!! It's like he doesn't even want to actually talk on the phone to me but just wants to see if he can get me to call him I guess? I feel like he's really jerking me around & it's driving me nuts! Which of the going NC "methods" I described above do you think would be best for dealing with a situation like mine?
