I'm itching to text my ex, which I know is a horrible idea. I need some good distractions! I've watched every possible thing on Netflix!

    Text me instead. :)
  • I talk to my other guy friends on the phone. That makes it a little difficult to text if I'm already using the phone. Good luck! :)

    My number one way to get over a guy and forget him for good: Constantly remind yourself of all the things about him you didn't like and all the douchey things he said/did. Women seem to overlook flaws when they are infatuated. haha

    There's a reason why (s)he is an ex, I assume. Remember it and do something that doesn't involve your phone.

    Or text this one, he seems willing.

    Delete their phone #.. that helps some of the time.
  • Oh nooo.... don't ever delete phone numbers. If anything just change their first name to "NO" and keep their last name in there so you know who it is that you do NOT wish to speak to. This goes for Ex's, ex-friends, backstabbers - you name it. That way if they DO try to contact you, you know it..... imagine the horror if you answered a call because you didn't recognize the number (anymore) and it was someone you didn't want to talk to? Yeah.....

    Preferably something starting with Z so they sort to the bottom of the alphabet when you need to scroll through your address book.

    My ex is remarried (as am I) so our paths rarely cross, but when they do we just ignore each other as though we never even knew each other, which suits me fine....

    Simple: I don't talk to her. There are a lot more interesting people in the world.

    Delete his number and all texts. Or kill him.






















    Presumably, Mr Reese is tracking me down right now.

    wear a rubber band around your wrist and every time you think of texting him snap the rubber band. unless you're kinky and pain makes you horny.. then don't do that..

    In which case, there are better places to put a rubber band...

    willpower , delete their numbers.

    Nobody likes sending a text and getting a who is this reply... pees them right off

    Life's too short to be looking over your shoulder wondering what an ex is doing, even during the lonely moments of the night

    willpower stops me stuffing my face with goodies.... and I use that same willpower to stop me going down memory lane with somebody who I deemed unworthy... or who did the same to me
