Overall positive communication but I'm really craving a prolonged period of NC to heal. Constantly feeling rejected


Ohgosh -
The key isnt really the no contact. Sure, that helps. But the real key is emotional detachment. If you can see her texts for what they are and not let the little pokes and jabs get to you, then the pain recedes. Of course, being away can help with your progress - but dont think that just because you dont talk to her for a week and a half, that you wont feel the pain from those pokes when you come back. Good luck!
