I think you're making a good decision for the right reasons. Being mysterious is never a bad thing.
I think this is the only way you can give him a chance to miss you to where he might rethink his decision. In case he doesn't, your life will still be richer and fuller. I believe that every thing you do to create a life for yourself that has nothing to do with him or your mutual past, will help you feel stronger and more independent.
Thank you for your input Painter! I so much appreciate it!
I have made plans for a trip this summer, and lots of other stuff to keep me busy and hopefully achieve a stronger me even if it is without him. Wake up every morning with anxiety and have decided to put my run before breakfast so as I get the benefit of the happy hormones it triggers as soon as possible from when I wake up.
I so wish that he will find that he misses me and that our connection that we had isn't as easily found as he might think right now when he's out meeting up with other woman.
Silly me also hopes that the fact that we had amazing sex, and I know he still was really attracted to me would be something that would pass through his mind if/when he finds himself in bed with someone new, and hopefully miss it..
How long should a NC period be?
Ok, thanks again Painter! So happy for the support I get here! Hug!
