stand by your actions. if someone decides to isolate after then that is their choice. it appears he has made it obvious he wants no contact. give him that. "helping " friends ..pay no attention to them, they aren't really helping..they mean well but in this case the other person has made it clear what his intentions are.

thde thing is if you have cut contact, then cut contact. period. no strings, no phone calls every few weeks. be done. period. if that is truly what you want then stand by YOUR words and actions.
