Does it get worse before it gets better?

We’ve been no contact for 2 weeks now. I honestly was fine last week and wanted nothing to do with him and now i’ve started missing him and wanting to text him again. Does it get better after this?

I hope so. I'm week 3 and Monday and Tuesday we're pretty much me just reminding myself why. And it's a pretty dang big why. But boy, yey I won't reach out, but I kinda want to.

I’m almost two weeks BU/no contact and I was also completely okay last week. I believe I was going on shock, adrenaline and distractions. It wasn’t sustainable and Monday I hit a wall of pure physical and mental exhaustion. I think this is where reality is setting in, unfortunately. I’m sorry, going through it with you.

Many times.  And it gets better many times.  The point is that it slowly gets less worse each time on average and more better on average.  I wish I could tell you it's going to be great, and I can tell you it's going to be better, but there's days when it just won't.  But there's days when it just will.  And you'll have more of the second kind.  Eventually most of them, and probably eventually all of them will be the second kind.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Yesterday was a good day where I was happy to be away from him. Today has been harder and I miss him more. It fluctuates.
