Hi,

Broke up with my bf after I knew that he was only with me because he felt guilty about how much I really loved and cared for him without the feeling being reciprocated in his behalf.

Not spoken to him in over 2 weeks and no contact from him but I'm literally dying to speak to him. I want to get back together and I know that for my sake he will agree but deep inside he doesn't really like or love me at all.

Please, please stop me. How do I stop loving this perfect man?

...and contacting him?

He's not perfect though is he? He's been using you. He will stay with you until someone he genuinely wants comes along then dump you.
You must have very low self esteem to want to be with someone who doesn't want you. I couldn't be with someone who was only with me out of pity.

And to answer your question, only you can stop yourself contacting him. You've managed 2 weeks, try to make it to 3. It might be worth a bit of counselling for yourself/.

It's been 2 weeks but I actually ended up talking to him for 5 minutes through a mutual friends phone about 5 days ago. Really struggling to let him go... :(

Delete his number and any other avenue of contact. Then the temptation will be removed.

Go easy on yourself. It’s early days and it’ll take awhile to get through this. This feeling you have now, you’d feel loads worse if you tried contacting him and he rejected you or similar. If he isn’t calling he isn’t interested. You’re worth more than this xx
