This is the title with which I'm going to write about how it's going with the decision I made. I wrote about it in my previous post. I am setting boundaries with my good friend (ex boyfriend) who is getting distant and I need to let him go a little bit more.

So I decided that I won't text him first, until he does. Then I can allow myself to text first if I feel like I should (it would be rude to always wait for him to text first). I am limiting myself to send only 3 texts in a row (I write a lot 😅) unless it's for something very important.

Yesterday he didn't text me until 6 pm. He asked me how I was doing, I replied in 30 minutes on purpose. We texted a bit more in the evening and that was it. I am pretty proud of myself.

Today for the moment I only replied to the texts he had sent me while I was sleeping.

Keep up your end with boundaries you can live with. 👏 It takes about 21 days for a new action to become automatic. 🐈‍⬛
