Coach Lee

They Thought You Would Wait Forever

They thought you’d wait forever.

They thought you’d stay in place.

That you’d stay loyal no matter how long they disappeared.

That you’d be available whenever — if they ever changed their mind.

And for a while… maybe they were right.

But something changed. You didn’t just wait. You grew. You got quiet. You got stronger. And now… they don’t know where you stand. And that uncertainty? It’s doing something they never expected — it’s making them feel your absence.

In this episode, Coach Lee breaks down the powerful shift that happens when you stop chasing, stop reaching out, and stop holding space for someone who walked away. It’s not about giving up — it’s about stepping back in a way that forces your ex to face the silence, the loss, and the consequences of their decision.

You’ll learn:

• Why openly waiting after a breakup actually keeps your ex emotionally comfortable and uninterested

• How true emotional distance triggers curiosity, doubt, and even longing in the mind of your ex

• What role ego plays in making them assume you’ll always be there — and what happens when that assumption shatters

• The difference between stepping back with power vs. using it as a tactic (and how your intent affects the outcome)

• What to do if they do reach out — how to handle that moment with composure and strength, instead of rushing back into the same dynamic

This episode is about helping you reclaim your dignity and emotional clarity — not as a strategy to manipulate your ex, but as a way to create real conditions for their regret and reconsideration. Because when you stop acting like you're waiting forever… it becomes clear to them that your love wasn't unconditional—it was respectful, but it required reciprocity.

If you're currently wondering how long to wait, what to do next, or whether your ex will even notice you're gone, Coach Lee shares the mindset and actions that can help you move forward — either toward reconciliation, or peace.

Maybe they’re silent. Maybe they’re posting like life has never been better.

Maybe they’ve even convinced themselves that they’re at peace.

But here’s the truth—they’re struggling more than they’ll ever admit. Breakups don’t bring instant clarity.

They create doubt, emotional contradictions, and hidden struggles that most people refuse to acknowledge.

While you’re wondering if they’ve moved on without a second thought, they’re fighting an internal battle they don’t want you to see.

In this episode, I’ll break down five hidden struggles your ex is facing right now—whether they show it or not: 🎙️ What You’ll Learn in This Episode: They’re Exhausted from Pretending They Don’t Care – The silent emotional drain of keeping up an act. They Can’t Escape the “What If?” Thoughts – How doubt slowly replaces their initial confidence.

Seeing You Unaffected Makes Their Internal Struggle Worse – Why their need for control backfires.

They’re Afraid to Admit They Might Have Been Wrong – How their ego is keeping them stuck.

Their Silence Isn’t Peace—It’s a Battle – The hidden emotional chaos they can’t avoid forever. If you think their silence means they don’t care, you’re only seeing the surface. The longer they stay silent, the harder this struggle becomes.

1. Dopamine and the Relief Stage

When your ex decided to break up, their brain rewarded them with dopamine, the same chemical that gives a sense of satisfaction when completing difficult tasks. Since breaking up is tough, their brain gives them a sense of relief, making them feel like they’ve “escaped” something they had been struggling with for a while. Even if they later regret the breakup, at the moment, they feel good because the breakup is no longer something they are dreading. This initial relief can make it seem like they feel nothing, but it's just the temporary high of crossing a difficult task off their mental to-do list.

2. No Emotional Consequences Yet

Your ex has not yet had time to fully experience your absence. The human brain assumes that familiar people will always be around, so in the early stages after a breakup, they don’t feel like they’ve lost you permanently. If you keep reaching out, they won’t feel any real emotional consequences. They won’t miss you because they still believe you are an option. In order for them to feel your absence, you must stop contacting them and allow reality to set in.

3. They Consider You a Perpetual Option

If your ex hasn’t experienced you truly being gone, they don’t believe they’ve lost you. Many people make the mistake of keeping communication open, thinking it will help rebuild the relationship, but in reality, it only reinforces the breakup. By remaining in their life, you make it easier for them to move on, because nothing feels different. The best way to make them reconsider is to actually walk away and let them realize what life is like without you.

4. They Are Rewriting the Relationship

To justify the breakup, your ex may distort their memories of the relationship, making you seem worse than you were. They may label you as toxic, controlling, or even call you a narcissist, not necessarily because they believe it, but because they need a logical reason to explain the breakup to themselves and others. However, over time, their brain will naturally forget the negatives and remember the positives more clearly. This psychological process, known as the fading effect bias, often leads people to regret their decisions.

5. They Feel Something, But They Won’t Show It

Your ex may be feeling emotions but doesn’t want to admit it. Reaching out after a breakup can feel embarrassing, so instead, they look for an excuse to reconnect subtly. They may start small, sending a casual message, hoping you’ll take the lead. Some people struggle with accountability and want the other person to be the one to initiate getting back together.

Final Thoughts

The best way to handle this situation is to stay away. Let your ex go through the natural stages of post-breakup emotions. As the dopamine fades and they experience your absence, they may start to miss you. If you continue to reach out, you only delay this process. Instead, give them the breakup they wanted—so they can truly feel what life is like without you.

Pain Your Ex Feels But Won't ADMIT

Your ex may act fine after the breakup, but deep down, they’re feeling emotions they won’t admit to anyone—including themselves. In this podcast episode, Coach Lee reveals the hidden pain your ex experiences as time passes and why they might start to regret leaving you.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The Pain of Uncertainty: Why they start questioning if breaking up was a mistake.

• The Emotional Crash: How their initial relief turns into emptiness.

• The Power of Nostalgia: Why their brain rewrites history to focus on the good times.

• The Reality of Feeling Stuck: How seeing you move forward makes them feel left behind.

• The Shock of Your Silence: Why they expected you to chase—but now wonder if they lost you forever.

Why This Matters

Your ex’s silence doesn’t mean they’re happy. Their ego, fear, and pride keep them from showing their true emotions. But as time passes, their pain grows—until they can no longer ignore it. Understanding this process can help you stay strong in no contact and give you the best chance of making them realize what they lost.

Your Ex Feels Worse Over Time

At first, it might seem like your ex is doing just fine after the breakup—maybe even relieved. But that feeling won’t last forever. In this episode, Coach Lee dives deep into why your ex actually feels worse as time goes on and how their emotions shift in ways they never expected.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why your ex’s emotions are delayed after the breakup – Understanding the psychological timeline that makes them feel worse over time.

• How nostalgia rewrites the past – Why your ex starts remembering the good times more than the bad as weeks and months pass.

• The role of no contact in amplifying their regret – How staying silent makes them realize what they’ve lost.

Radio Silence To Get An Ex Back

The Impact of Radio Silence on Your Ex

Radio silence is one of the most effective strategies after a breakup, particularly if your ex was the one who ended the relationship. It works hand in hand with no contact but has its own unique impact. By removing yourself from your ex’s life completely—no texting, no social media updates, no interaction—you create a noticeable absence that forces them to feel the consequences of their decision.

Breaking the Seek-and-Find Pattern

In today’s world, we’re used to getting answers instantly. If we have a question, we Google it. If we need to know something, we check social media or text someone. But when it comes to people, things work differently.

When you go silent, your ex loses the ability to check up on you. They can’t find out how you're doing, who you’re with, or whether you’ve moved on. That can be incredibly frustrating for them because it breaks their expectation that they can always seek information and find it.

This is an important first consequence of the breakup—they no longer have access to you. Before, they were used to knowing what was going on in your life, from daily activities to future plans. Now, they get nothing. And that absence can feel jarring.

Forcing Them to Miss Your Intimacy

Regardless of why they ended the relationship, if it lasted six months or more, your ex will inevitably miss the intimacy you shared. That’s the part of a relationship people tend to miss the most. Even in shorter relationships, there is a level of connection that gets disrupted when one person disappears.

Many times, after a breakup, an ex will check social media, scroll through old pictures, or casually ask mutual friends about you. This gives them a sense of staying emotionally connected, even if the relationship has ended. But when you enforce radio silence, they lose that option.

If all they can see are old posts and outdated pictures, it doesn't satisfy them. They want new information—something to confirm that you’re still there, still missing them, still possibly open to reconciliation. But when you disappear, they feel the full impact of what it means to no longer have you in their life.

Creating a Psychological Void

The mind has a tendency to fixate on what it cannot have. When you go silent, your ex is left with questions:

• How are you feeling about the breakup?
• Are you moving on?
• Have you met someone new?

That curiosity is crucial. If they assume they can check in on you whenever they want, they feel in control. But when that information is no longer available, their curiosity can quickly turn into concern, then regret.

People often think that their ex expects them to beg, plead, or try to convince them to stay. When you do the opposite—when you vanish—they don’t know what to think. It’s unexpected, and that makes it powerful.

Preventing Closure

Get Coach Lee's Reunion Blueprint to get your ex back for only $7 at https://ReunionBlueprint.com. 

Many times, an ex will look for ways to feel justified in their decision. They want closure on their terms. If they see you struggling, reaching out, or making it clear that you still want them, it gives them a sense of relief. They feel that breaking up was the right choice.

But when they can’t see any evidence of your emotions, they are left in a state of uncertainty. They don’t know if you’re heartbroken or if you’ve already moved on. That lack of closure leaves the door open for them to second-guess their decision.

Triggering Fear of Missing Out (FOMO)

People don’t like the idea of being left out. If your ex believes they still have a place in your life, even from a distance, they won’t feel a strong urge to return.

But when you go silent, their mind starts to assume things:

• You must be out having fun.
• You must be doing things they don’t know about.
• Maybe you’ve already found someone new.

These thoughts create a fear of missing out—on your life, your happiness, and possibly even a reconciliation.

Making Yourself Inaccessible

There’s a big difference between knowing you can reach someone and realizing you might not be able to. Radio silence creates the illusion that you are out of reach. Even if your ex technically could contact you, they hesitate.

Why? Because they don’t know how you’ll respond—or if you’ll respond at all. And when people feel they can’t have something, they often want it more.

Creating a Phantom Relationship

Over time, your ex may find themselves mentally engaging with you even though you’re not around. They will replay memories, imagine conversations, and try to recreate the intimacy they lost.

At first, this might feel satisfying to them. But it doesn’t take long for them to realize that reminiscing is not the same as actually having you in their life. That realization can lead them to question the breakup.

The Power of Absence

When done correctly, radio silence makes your ex wonder about you constantly. It creates an emotional gap that only you can fill. And the longer they go without answers, the more their mind works against them.

They might start to feel regret. They might worry they’ve lost you for good. And in some cases, they may even become obsessed with the idea of getting you back.

But none of that can happen if you’re constantly reminding them you’re still there. That’s why silence is so powerful—it forces them to feel the weight of the breakup.

So if you’re wondering what to do after a breakup, consider this: Sometimes, the best thing you can do is nothing at all.

Let them feel your absence. Let them wonder. Let them regret.

And if they truly care, they will come looking for you. Get Coach Lee's Reunion Blueprint to get your ex back for only $7 at https://ReunionBlueprint.com.

No Contact For Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

Does No Contact Work with a Borderline Personality Disorder Ex?

What You’ll Discover in This Video:

Why No Contact Works Differently with a BPD Ex: How emotional instability and extreme mood swings influence their perception of separation.

Understanding the Push-Pull Cycle: Why individuals with BPD shift between craving closeness and abruptly pushing you away—and how no contact disrupts this pattern.

Common Emotional Reactions to No Contact: Anticipating responses like distress, idealization, or even manipulative attempts to draw you back in.

Dangers of Breaking No Contact Prematurely: How engaging too soon can trap you in an unhealthy cycle and prevent both of you from truly moving forward.

How No Contact Promotes Growth for Both of You: Why distancing yourself isn’t about punishment but about allowing space for emotional reset and perspective shifts.

Many assume that maintaining no contact with a BPD ex is impossible due to their intense emotional reactions, but this video sheds light on why it can be one of the most crucial steps toward personal healing and establishing better relationship dynamics in the future.

What Is BPD?
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a mental health condition characterized by extreme emotional fluctuations, difficulty regulating emotions, and unstable relationships.
