Argh! Drunk texted! Please give me a hand hold

[Royalfuckup]

Fuck fuck fuck fuck

I got drunk last night and texted my ex that I love him.

Feeling so foolish and idiotic now.

He hasn’t replied but he has read my message.

I’m such an idiot. Wtf did I go and bloody text him for? I was doing so well going NC too.

Back to square bloody one

Delete his number and block him

Yep. Did that first thing.

How long does it take to stop loving someone?

A long time.

Remember the humiliation you’re feeling now, it’ll help you avoid doing it again in the future!

Don’t worry. It’s just a thing we all do 🤪. He will forget. The no contact is important .

What a shame you deleted his number before you had a chance to reply this morning "sorry - this was meant for someone else!".

Hilarious though this would have been, it probably wouldn't be wise. But I would have that in the back of your mind in case he ever does mention it.

The fact that you hadn't deleted and blocked him previously suggests to me you weren't really committed to NC. Hopefully now you are.

Your only human. Don't beat yourself up too much.

I’m trying to be positive about it and think that it’s a good thing I’m the long run.

The shame of it is burning in my mind...

I would actually text him now and tell him that I was drunk and got a bit sentimental and stupid but obviously I don't still love him! Totally over him and fine! Make a bit of a joke about it and goodbye for ever!

Can you just send another one today saying ‘oops sorry, not for you’

I wouldn't text again. Don't let him know that you've been worrying about it!!

Eh, you have the Beer Fear and you'll be able to laugh about it soon. Not to worry.

Don't send him another one; it's too transparent. You'd need to have done it straight away and it might still have not been believable.

Deleting his number was the right thing to do. Today is day one; you'll get there.

We’ve all been there. Don’t sweat it x

Think most of us have done this!
Don’t sweat it 😃

We've all been there. Come over to the Dignity no contact thread if you need some support!

Thank you NK - that’s exactly the thread I need! Thank you!

And thank you to everyone who held my hand here

You wouldn't be human if you didn't do these things.

My ex did this to me on New Years Eve and we haven't been together for a year. It's best to just act like it never happened. Don't apologise, don't text again. His silence means everything. It's not embarassing, and it's totally normal. When my ex did it I didn't feel anything other than just sad that we hadn't worked out - but not sad enough to get back together.

I think just learn from this that it's time to move on - and maybe avoid alcohol for a while.

At least you didn’t turn up at his drunk and throw up on the bathroom floor like I did. I think going with the ‘it didn’t happen’ stance is best.
Just move on, if you happen to bump into him and he mentions it just act like you don’t know what he’s talking about.

Yikes! Sorry but that does make me feel better emboo

Ha! Glad it helped Royal.
I took some comfort in the fact he had to clean said sick up and I’ve had a fair few drunk calls and texts from him.
