nsw & newmama,
You know what?
I agree!

nsw: New Mantra: "Ignore. Ignore. Ignore." Everything. For one week. Give yourself that gift. And let her wonder, fume, and stew in it. And then see what happens after seven days.

Just. Stop.

Simple. And easy.

I understand that it is a lot harder when it comes to being in the same room with ex...but start with not initiating contact first and then you can move to limiting interaction w/ her when you see her.

It is true that women are attracted to strong, confident men. Needy men are a turn off.
Now something I have been wondering for months:
Is the above the same for what men like in women? Because I see a lot of men on the DB forum who enjoy rescuing or taking care of women.
