I got broken up with yesterday so I’m gonna give him space because he said he needs alone time and to put himself first…. If I give him space will he miss me? And how do you go about doing no contact…. Would I have to unfollow him on everything or just leave it to him to initiate?

Sorry to break it to u, but I think he means leave him alone. U do your things and he do his things - going separate ways. Move on.

Hi there Passionate!


Break-ups are never easy no matter if you were the dumpee or the dumper. That both of you get space is crucial for your healing process and both of you will need to grieve the relationship. Keep in mind that the grieving process is different if you are the dumper or the dumpee. The dumpee usually goes through the grieving process faster since they didn’t decide it was time to end the relationship. The dumper on the other hand is often so caught up in their newfound “freedom” that the relationship’s end will hit them later on. Going no contact helps both of you heal and focus on yourselves, while negative emotions don’t escalate and it does give him space to miss you.


You can browse the listener page here! and connect with wonderful and empathic listeners. One tip is to look at the listener’s bio and see if they have “Break-ups under their direct/lived experience, as these listeners might be best suited to provide support since they have gone through a break-up themselves.

Best of wishes, Vision <3

I think you shouldn’t worry so much about it. Just try to let him go and don’t reach out to him. If you still want to be with him I would maybe let him know but if he decided to leave you then he has some things he needs to work out. Do you have any friends you can talk to about this?
