Posted by SuperMercurialI sort of exaggerated this and was being slightly sarcastic, this is just the manner in which we talk to each-other. It's been over a year though, he did this once before and ended up breaking it, and we ended up hanging out, and a lot of things sort of happened that night that made me realize our relationship is totally out of the ordinary and not something I think either one of us completely understands, and has taken a long time to grow into. Anyways, he had been drinking that night and we did end up fighting, and I left and he called me and texted me and told me to come back, and I didn't because I was upset and it was a lot of feels. It was overwhelming. So that's when he went silent again and stopped talking to me for the second time.
Five year silent streak?......He's totally into you.

Posted by BullShitThank you, that is tremendously encouraging! I am in a good place right now, I think that's partly why I miss him so much... Still, I totally agree, and again thank you.
I been there. I hope the best for YOU. Stay strong, keep on focusing on what you need to do and things will take care of themselves.

Posted by ElleDuMondeYes. I feel the same way, I understand it. I just hope he can move beyond it. Things happen, especially where we met at such a young age. I watched him date plenty of girls (my friends included) once he is done, he's done! Still, we were so careful with each-other, we had a different type of relationship. We took college classes together. We wrote each-other emails every couple of months to catch up. I called him out on his bullshit and he'd tell me I made him be a better person. We made each-other better. We weren't always immediately in each-others lives, but we would stay in contact. We both knew and agreed we needed time.
I can only chalk it up to super hyper self preservation.
I don't think they realise that it really hurts them more than protects them. If you go thru life doing that do you really ever establish real friendship ties?
I have found they are sometimes more unforgiving than scorps....and for things that most friends could work out with a little communication.

Posted by lnana04This is great perspective! I agree, I'm not sure what will come. I think with him I'd rather know than not, he just means too much to me. I guess time will tell.
I go through this with another earth sign, and I'm the Cap. I'm usually the silent one, so being on the other end I saw how hurtful and abusive it really is, but I'm quick to draw the line on the amount of times I will reach out. Silence signals to me that you are ready to move on, and I won't stop a person from trying to get away from something that may possibly be unhealthy.
He wants to keep the lines open, which is why he hasn't deleted you from anything. It will really be up to you to put an end to this. IF he does come around, you may not think it now, but you will most likely resent him for his behavior. Things may never really be the same, so it's probably best to let go.

Posted by ElleDuMondeAh, you totally get where I am coming from. Yes, exactly. Particularly because things are going good, and I wish I could tell him / hear about what he's doing. This happened between you and a Cappy too? Did you ever end up speaking to them or working it out? Very hard situation, not something I will allow myself to dwell on too much, but something that's been on my mind enough lately that it made me finally break-down and try to talk to him one last time. I said what I felt like I needed to say, and I guess that's all I can do.Posted by LuxhcIt's strange how you miss them more when you are in a good place. That happens to me too. It's like you want to run to your friend and tell them all about it....because they were such a close friend.....and they are just not there......like they never existed.Posted by BullShitThank you, that is tremendously encouraging!

Posted by LuxhcGosh, I soooo know what you're saying. I've lived through almost exactly the same situation that you're describing.
He still hasn't blocked my messages or my iMessage would turn Green, I believe. So it's like he's there and he's not responding and he's being doing this for so long... I've given him months, maybe years of space? So it's just frustrating. I'm not trying to be super emotional about it, and I'm not torn up about it, and I don't expect some type of romantic relationship to be the resolve of this (even if we have feelings for each-other), in total honestly: I just want my friend back in my life. I miss him, and the more time that passes and the older we get the more I miss him.

Posted by ElleDuMondeSomeone please kill me if I doing this thirty years from now because I can totally forsee that happening. I completely get what you're saying, they can be so stubborn! Still, I think that's awesome that you sort of feel that way are are just determined to check up on him, I totally understand those feelings. I can move on from basically every one else, you know? Let it go and just not worry or think about it anymore but with him, I can't. He's just a really important person in my life and losing him forever just seems crazy to me. I hope he comes around for you! Hopefully he'll realize you do obviously care about him a ton and maybe be open to making amends. Staying mad at someone forever can only hurt the person staying mad, I think. You're totally right about what you said earlier.
Yeah, a cappy too. It hasn't been quite a year.of silence...it's been well over a year since the breakup.
I needed to go no contact to dissipate the feelings because we had tried to stay friends for about six months after the breakup and I couldnt shake them.
I told him what I was doing in advance. I came back three months later with an olive branch for friendship after I had reconciled the feels and he essentially told me to piss off and didn't want my friendship.
I try to poke him every few months just to say hi and to make sure he is still breathing but I don't get anything back. I will probably do that forever even if the email eventually comes back undeliverable.

Posted by LuxhcYou didn't talk to him, you talked at him. You spent most of that rambling message being passive aggressive. Not trying to offend you because I've done it too. I've sent very similar messages and sat there saying a lot of the same things you are in this post. I don't care, I don't this or that but I did care very much. I recognize it as being a Cap Moon thing but I'm sure others do it too. It's a protective thing. No one likes feeling vulnerable especially when they're already hurting and confused...but I've learned through the years that sometimes you have to be. Not for the other person but for yourself. You want him to know how you feel but you're not really saying it in a clear way. Be clear. Take out all the "stopped caring" nonsense and just be honest. You do care, you do want some kind of relationship otherwise you wouldn't still be trying, and you need to know if it's possible -tell him that. I think if you sit down and write out what you feel, want/need from him in a very clear, concise way and just send it it will feel like a huge weight has been lifted -doesn't matter if he shows the world what you said, doesn't matter if he even responds. You spoke your truth once and for all and now you can begin to move on.Posted by ElleDuMondeAh, you totally get where I am coming from. Yes, exactly.

Posted by LuxhcI'm sorry you are hurting. Could it be that he's seeing someone else and it's serious? Either that or he's really really really mad and doesn't think you seem properly apologetic (as in you don't understand what you did yet, so let you sweat it out some more). But in my experience, Caps don't let it go that long without contacting if he wants to stay connected.
"You know I still can't figure out exactly what I did to have been graced (again) with this five year long silent streak. When did we get like this?
And not to mention that last time I saw you, I think we actually bypassed whatever this predicament was/is, and realized maybe we missed each-other? And I'm sorry if that didn't exactly end like previous sporadic nights we'd spent together. I guess after years of not seeing or talking to each-other, that isn't something you get to come into lightly.
All of my classes are getting seemingly harder and I guess if I'm looking to land myself into my desired masters program, I'll probably have to commit to being on campus at the *, and back in *** again. Maybe I'll see you around or something since I don't really expect to ever hear back from you. Just don't regret it if you do finally decide to talk to me and realize I've finally changed my number, or worse? I afforded myself the same freedom you seem to have; and stopped caring. Seems like a good plan, because I'm tired of making up excuses to try and figure this whole thing out."

My fellow Cappies:
I mean, seriously we meant a lot to each-other. I'm just going to leave it at that, I've tried so many times to talk to him and he won't respond at all... I'm hoping people don't jump to crazy conclusions here; we were young when we met, and we both needed to grow up. We've dated on and off. We've both made some mistakes. He's just way more unforgiving it seems like... and I tend to make huge exceptions for him. Either way, I have to stop and let it go from here, maybe in the future he'll reach out or something. I have no idea, but this was sort of my last attempt at getting a response. I have a pretty good understanding of Capricorns, he has an Aries moon. IDK. I guess at this point I'll just hope for the best from here.

Posted by ElleDuMondeAgree.
It's a monologue.....it's her expression of her feelings....raw and unedited.
to try to make it sound different than what it is or move words around to make it more appealing to him wouldn't be genuine....that would be manipulation.
I like how she posted it AFTER she wrote it, instead of before. She owns it. I give her props for that.

Just my 2 cents.
