What Is The No Contact Rule?

Break ups have always been a part of every relationship and sometimes it is really inevitable. Things would just start to spiral down and I can’t do anything to make things work. I always ask myself why my relationships fail or why my former partner left me and I always believed that all of it was my fault. I blamed myself for everything that happened and because of that my self-esteem went down. I don’t want to be romantically involved with someone again. Then one time while I was meditating, this thought came to me and as I contemplated, I found out that all of my thoughts before were not entirely true. Yes, I did some mistakes but occasionally, the relationship fails because the other party failed to do his or her duty. Because of this, my friends would always tell me about the no contact rule and I will tell you about it.

No contact rule means detachment.

            You have just experienced a heart-crushing time. That person unexpectedly decided that they want you out of their life so don’t look back to them. Let them be and put all your efforts into moving on and living your life to the fullest. When we broke up, I blocked him in all of my social media accounts because I think that it will just slow the process of letting go. I was so attached to him so if I do look at his pictures again, it may be painful for me. I detached myself away from things that remind me of him. You may have broken up because your partner cheated on you, you can read this article to know more. https://www.tendermeets.com/experts-talk/infidelity-by-country.html

No contact rule means staying away.

            Completely vanish any thought of your ex by staying away from things that reminds them of you. You have to not think about your relationship and how happy it was before, erase of all these thoughts in your mind because these memories will just haunt you and you won’t be able to do anything but feel sad and grovel at the fact that your relationship is already over. You have to have the determination to keep them from roaming your mind so that you can completely heal from the pain that you have felt during your break up. If you do this, it will be easier for you to move on.

No contact rule means forgetting.

            In order for you to truly move on from that person, you need to forget about them. Not that I am saying you forget all the memories you shared but you need to forget about the feeling of being with that person because if your thoughts would still linger on the thought of being with your ex, you won’t really move on from them. You will always be seeking their presence no matter how long it is and you won’t be able to genuinely love someone because your heart still belongs to your ex. It would be quite unfair for the next person you will love because your feelings are shared by them and your ex and they will never fully feel what it is like to be loved by you.
