They should have a Self Help book titled, "How to Resist the Urge to Call." And it should be written by men because they're the ones who do so well with breaking severing ties. And I should own that book, read it carefully, religiously, daily and if possible, memorize the words verbatim by now. It should be my Relationship Bible. I should subscribe to the weekly feeds. They should have a 1-800 number that I can call once that urge comes over me (and certainly it would, like once or twice a day), and I should have that number memorized as well to use it to fight that inconsolable pitiable urge.
Needless to say, I always want answers and until I get the answers I cannot resist the urge to call. But calling doesn't necessarily mean you'll get the answers, it just means it would add more hurt to the hurt that's supposed to be dissipating with time. It just sets back that clock. From 5 days to my last attempted call to 1 day to my last attempted call. Plus it just makes you seem desperate and we truly, truly hate that. They will never understand that you just want answers. A Curious Cat like me...of course I want answers. I also want resolutions. I hate it when there's silence on the other line. But these are all issues the self-help book would hopefully help me to resolve.
I wonder why no one's ever thought of that by now.
