Boundaries

How to keep healthy boundaries in your relationships

IS facebooking or cyberstalking your EX a good idea?
http://www.switched.com/2009/01/30/is-facebooking-your-ex-a-good-idea/
I am not so sure it is...And for many reasons...
IF the person has finished with you, regardless of whether you wanted that break up or not, we have to respect the wishes of others and while in the midst of that watching him online, we need to be careful as we may find out things that hurt us. That there is someone else in the picture, etc... if we snoop we are likely to find out things we may not want to know or that will hurt us.
I suggest taking them off your buddy list, it may be a hard thing to do but it's easier when we are not aware of how much time they are off or on line.
I suggest trying to leave the situation be for the moment, when we give someone what they said they wanted, they may figure out that was NOT what they wanted but how could they if we text them, call them, cyberstalk them they may not in fact have a chance to miss us and they may feel uncomfortable considering the level of emotional INTENSITY we have attached to this situation. That alone can make someone run a mile...
It's never easy when the object of our affection does not return our feelings...however letting go while it may be hard, it is usually the best thing to try to do. Sitting waiting for that phone call, calling daily about it, and WAITING is NEVER a good thing to do regardless of how many readers told you that call was coming. LET IT GO and IF he/she comes back GREAT! And if they do not ( and that happens, sometimes it's easier to walk away and not face the pain you created) you are well on your way to someone who can reciprocate those feelings, so you get to decide, sit there and be miserable WAITING, or LIVE YOUR LIFE, you have the POWER to CHOOSE, use that power WISELY
