Split with my ex last year and had been vaguely keeping in touch. I wad fine until he told me he is getting married. I am now going NC. Is this best? Sometimes l think NC builds up fantasies but are these less hurtful than being in contact and hearing all the details from him? Is out of sight out of mind?

What do you mean by work? If you mean does it get better then yes it will it time and nc will help with that as it’s easier to pretend they don’t exist IMO time is a healer.

In my experience yes. But what might also help you is to write a list of all the reason that you broke up. If you feel like getting in touch refer to the list, which will also help focus you on good reasons to move on. That’s just me though - once I’m done, I’m done (which is why I am struggling with my separation from my husband as I still have to see him because of DC). Good luck op
