Should I Respond To My Ex During No Contact? Or Ignore Them?

In this video, Coach Lee discusses what to do when your ex reaches out during no contact.

Some coaches suggest that you should ignore your ex when you are in no contact after they broke up with you, but, as Coach Lee explains, you risk actually helping your ex to move on from you.

Think about it. If your ex reaches out to you and you ignore them, they will start to believe that you don't want to hear from them, that there's no chance of you taking them back, and that there's no point in them reaching out to you.

On top of that, your ex will likely feel foolish and silly reaching out to you again because it is like they are talking to a wall.

You aren't responsive, so why would they try it again? In most cases, they don't. That is, most of the time, your ex will stop reaching out to you if you ignore them and then you are in a difficult, tricky position.

From there, you will have fewer options to getting your ex back. If you are being told to ignore your ex during no contact, don't do it.

Doing so will kill the momentum of your ex missing you and wanting to feel your presence.

I totally Agree on this. My Ex Reached Out to Me After 2 weeks of no contact. I responded to Him just very Short and Polite. Now he wants to see me and talk things out. This Really worked thank you.

I literally have you in my headphones and listen to your videos and advice all day to keep me going. I love your advice. Straight to the point and logical; there is no one else on youtube I could listen to for so long expect you. Love the videos 🙏🏼

If they move on... They were not for you....

[meccaable]

No contact do work. I honestly did not think I was gonna hear so soon. I'm not reading anything into this right now. I feel he needs to miss me for a while.

Well my ex girlfriend only reaches out when she wants to text about her life and troubles. I think I'm doing the right thing by not responding.

[TheGilbalfas]

How important is this video. Amazing. What u say makes sense. No contact should not include not responding. But maybe we should make them work a bit harder before we give all our affections away again. Relationships are tricky these days.

[anthonyasart]

Coach Lee, you are a hero. Your advice is practical and always accurate.

[sab_gracie]

After a week of no contact, he messaged me. Thank you.

[whisperingwind]

I agree w/ u on this. It makes no sense to ignore ur ex when they reach out.
That IS the whole point of no contact to regain control of ourselves and allow time and space to get them to reach out. When they do if u still are interested it only makes sense to respond.
This video is a breath of fresh air bc ur right others say otherwise and it just doesn't make sense as they will give up for good.
Thank u for sharing~
🙏🏻💗🙂🙌🏻✨✌🏻

It's all making sense. When your Ex broke up with you, the ball was in her court. When she reaches out to you, the ball is in your court.

With all do respect to Coach Lee, I dont fear rejection. Sometimes, no contact should NEVER be broken.

I eventually stopped responding to the rare texts from my ex. It never went anywhere. He was just reaching out to see how I was doing, then to disappear yet again. No interest in anything else. So, he was getting the benefit of my response whenever it was good for him, for his ego boost that I would respond to him each time. The last time he sent a text— I just never responded. Literally no point anymore. He moved on long ago. I need to move on with zero contact both ways. Now I know I’ll never hear from him again, and I’ll never ever contact him.

Day after day convinced that coach Lee is the best coach ever.

[RobertJones-etgh]

Don’t take them back if they replaced you for someone else, but then want you back. So disrespectful. How can you ever trust them again? The relationship is destroyed.

[sweetiegirl]

This guy is right don’t ignore they will give up and move on

[adambuysyuckyhouses]

If they have an attitude there's no reason to respond oh so you're not talking to me now is not a reason to respond

[claytonlusby]

You're the best, Coach Lee. Your videos give me so much comfort and so much valuable advice. I watch a few of your videos every morning. It helps me through the day. I thank you for that. You give me hope and hope is priceless and really all we have. Thank you, sir. Keep up the good work.
