After a 5 year relationship DP stopped contacting me. The week before all had been fine, then nothing.
Well when I say fine I mean that the relationship had started off with lots of passion but was admittedly on its last legs and probably time for us to both move on. We didn't hate each other, just got a little bored with each other and weren't making each other a priority, but he continued to say he wanted us to be together for always etc etc.
But a month ago he stops contacting me; didn't return a couple of calls I made to him; nothing.
I know he's still alive - saw his car outside his workplace.
I want this relationship to have ended and I want to move on, but I keep thinking about him - not in a longing, loving way - just irritated at why he couldn't give our relationship a better ending than this. I'm not the sort to start screaming and threatening or begging him not to dump me, so I don't really understand it. Yes, he might have an OW, but even if he did surely he could have ended our relatinship better than this - it was very special once for both of us.
I really don't understand why I can't just put him out of my mind, rather than hoping I've got a text from him or that I'll bump into him somewhere. I've got no intention of engineering a meeting as I don't want him anymore......so why am I still clinging on to him? It ridiculous.

No contact for a month - why can't I just let go?
