I think he might come back

[Ad4708]

So I’ve posted 2 other threads before make sure you go qnd read those other 2 so you can fully understand. But I think my boyfriend isolating right now because I have not talked to him for 1 week and 2 days. Before he stopped talking to me like the last message he sent he was still calling me “baby” and putting heart emojis. But after that day I didn’t hear from him at all which got me a little concerned. So I would text him everyday just to make sure we were good and if I did anything wrong. But no reply and I would only text him once a day. And before he ignored me he had his read receipts on so I could see when he would read my messages but this time around he wouldn’t even open them all it said was “delivered” and so I decided to write him on Snapchat and he never opened that message. But he was very active on social media. It made me mad how he wasn’t talking to me but I’m not the type to blow up. I keep it to myself. So Friday morning I decided to text him and just let him know that I’m there for him and that I’m not going anywhere but I saw that my message didn’t deliver. So I called him and it went straight to voicemail so I then realized he blocked my number (mainly because I stressed him out with all the messages) but It’s my first time going through this. Well anyways he didn’t block me on social media. And I know this sound so like corny but on his Instagram he still had my name in his bio with a heart . So i thought to myself he just blocked my number and probably logged out of social media just so he won’t hear from me for a while and come back when he’s ready. But since I have my own anxiety issues but something inside of me switched off and I deleted him off my social media’s and took off his name from my bio. He had still had my name in his even after I took his off. But yesterday I saw tht he took mine off. I think he had did it cause i did it. But anyways I had a few drinks last night and I might sent him a message through Instagram but I was being really supportive no negativity towards him or anything and I saw that he read my message and he did not block me. I saw that as a good sign because like I said when he has been ignoring me he wouldn’t open my messages and then finally last night he did and he didn’t even block me. Like he blocked my number. So I just want everyone’s personal opinions about this? Do you supporters think that it’s a good sign?

This was a good idea. I think staying away from social media might really help. The best thing you can do to increase the chances of him coming back is to not continue to message him. If this is isolation due to PTSD, or isolation for other reasons for that matter, it's very likely that continued messaging will push him away. He knows you are there for him. Let him take the next step.

This is a very new relationship. This could be PTSD, this could be him ghosting you, it could be that he has a busy schedule over the holidays. He could not be coming back, he could be coming back. Only he knows - and he may not know.

But you do know you, and you know that having someone who is steady and really *there* for you, on a consistent basis, is a lot easier. It might be that this PTSD relationship isn't right for you. It can take more than just being really into the other person to make a relationship actually work.

^^All of this social media hype would give me a headache. I know it's a way of communicating but @Ad4708 you seem to be interpreting and translating read receipt's etc., as actual messages from him.

It seems he knows you are there for him and he will not or cannot call, text or visit you right now.

Stand back and let him find you and then actually have a real conversation with him.

Are you sure that this is a good relationship for you given how it is so negative on your anxiety symptoms?
