Just did the mistake of reading old texts.

Now it makes me kinda miss him (with emphasis on [b]kinda[/b]).

It’s a trap, I know.
It’s not helping, I know.
I’m just remembering the illusion, I know.

I know it's hard to delete those old texts, but be kind to yourself and do it.

@Ontheroad [quote] be kind to yourself[/quote] was the key.

Once deleted, it will be a lot easier to avoid that pitfall

@deadgerbil Much easier. 🙂
I deleted his number too. I should’ve done this ages ago. I am not running after someone who runs in the other direction.

Something similar happened to me a month ago. Found old texts and when I saw one that was just a random message she sent me one noght saying "I love you baby" I broke down as the flood of good memories of everything I missed broke through the emotional dam. I was not okay for sometime after.

@SamaYael omg I’m so sorry. How are you now?

@mindstruggle still not great. But little by little getting through my hell.

Few months ago. I pulled out old text saved from when MSN messager was around. Read the text, like few years of it. I wish i realised sooner that i was blinded on how toxic she really was. Noticed how much playing fire to my emotional she was doing and how it broke me mentally inside. Eventually I decided to delete em.
