That's temp checking. This will continue to increase in as you get better at detachment.

Yes.

You have to build a life for yourself that anyone would want to be a part of, full of fun activities, outside interests, and engaging friends. If you can do both of those things -- completely emotionally uncouple from her (fake it until you make it) *and* build an amazing life for yourself, she'll clamor to come back and if she doesn't you won't care. That's your only winning path out of where you are, but getting there is going to be uncomfortable, and more painful than you feel today, because it will go against your white knight nature.
These are wise words.

Do not chase women. Chase excellence and success. The women will pursue you.

LOL. Yep.

Either ignore or be really ballsy and say "oh yeah then why don't you come over and show me how much you miss me".

SD, please read Mach's response and consider it carefully. Mach is very wise and helped me a lot in my sitch. He asked thought-provoking questions that aren't really for you to answer, but to consider.

Also, have you ever heard of Nice Guy Syndrome? Please research it and consider reading the book No More Mr. Nice Guy.

One more reminder: YOU CANNOT NICE HER BACK

Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
