I'm lonely.. Tonight is day four with no man.. We have not broken up, he just hasn't bothered to contact me. I'm not really sad about it.. I'm just mad.. very mad. I'm a little depressed about other things.. I've been trying to keep my mind off of my life all week. It's not working. I've been cleaning, throwing stuff away, reading, going out, working out, playing with the cat. Nothing has helped. what do you do to de-stress when you're depressed?

hello friend, i am a guy so my idea would be alittle different than yours, you can always go shopping, i like music, music is everything to me, it clam me down alot, otherwise video game is pretty good at de stress, or if you have tons of friend throw a party, sometime i just hop in my car and i just drive around town.

I know EXACTLY how you feel. My boyfriend was trying hard to keep calling me and contacting me, but the less he bothered and more of a problem it became. I told him we needed a break because he knows how I felt about it and he hasn't kept his promise. I havn't seen him in about two weeks, but I've talked to him and I still feel very connection to him. Hopefully your situation won't be like that, but depending on how long you've been together, how many times you've talked to him about it, and if he's promised to contact you, you have to put your foot down. For example, I did what I did because we've been together two years, and it seemed like everytime I brought it up and had a long conversation with him about making the effort to contact me, he made a promise, kept it for a few days, and back to the begginning. In a situation like that, I had to put my foot down. Mostly though men arn't communicative types. If your both seriouse enough that you share your feelings with eachother and you are secure, you should openly tell him that your not okay with not hearing from him. Four days used to be a huge deal to me as well, until I started to get used to his behaviors. After 3 or 4 weeks I took action. So do what feels right, and if he really cares and if he's ready to commit to your relationship, he'll listen.

We've been together 5 years in July..He's been this way on and off our entire relationship. Its been bad the last year. I've broken up with him a few times but he acts like he doesn't accept the break and continues like he cares about me. A week later he does the same thing.. I'm so tired.. My heart hurts - I love him.. I just can't do this anymore.

Crying de stresses me and tai ji..gets the old stagnant qi flowing in the body then i feel a bit more stable. I try to keep busy so negative thoughts don't have time to fester in my brain and then lodge in my heart. It isn't easy and when you love someone the pain is unbearable i know. I really hope he contacts you soon and that you are together again. My prayers are with you.

first, you need to contact your man. determine whether or not you are a couple. if you are, then you need to discuss your relationship...why no contact, etc. if not, then you have closure and you can move on. when I am down...I go for a walk. I turn to my faith. I try to talk with friends or family. I might listen to music. I will likely play some music on the piano...or radio. sometimes I'll read a book, but generally I have found it hard to concentrate in these situations.

I wish I knew the wise words to say.. when I'm sad about it.. nothing seems to help me, and I get the same way. You know that. I think that if you moved to Ohio then we both wouldnt have this problem, we could keep each other occupied and our cats would keep themselves occupied. Haha. Love ya!

my boyfriend left for singapore to work and it has been so hard for me lately because im used to being with him all the time, but as I try to enjoy things by myself i didn't know im pretty good at it. When he left I went out for a massage and it definitely helped. Go out with friends...spend time with your family. If he doesn't contact you try asking him why. If a man hasn't bothered to call you up that long in my own opinion he definitely doesn't care. A phone call won't cost him that much right? enjoy life and smile you'll never know there is someone so inlove with your smile right now.cheer up girl...don't give him the credit of being lonely without him calling you. Good luck!

I know that feeling. I remember when my man went on vacation and didn't contact me for a few days. It was really depressing, and there wasn't a thing I could do to keep my mind off of it. Fortunately I had a couple of really good friends who helped me out. A week later he came home.
