14 things a man thinks when a woman walks away

Men are pretty good at hiding their feelings from others (and sometimes from themselves).

Maybe you walked away forever, or maybe you walked away to teach him a lesson. Maybe you didn’t know what to do anymore and you needed to distance yourself to rethink your bond.

If she’s been indifferent or acting brave after you walked away and you’re confused, this article is for you.

Here is a list of 14 things a man thinks and feels when a woman walks away.

1) You may feel confused

Men are not only pretty closed off about their feelings, but they are terrible at noticing what women are feeling.

You may have been hinting at how unhappy you were for a long time, but he didn’t get that you were serious or he wasn’t paying attention.

Now he is alone and surprised. He’s not sure why you left him.

He’s confused by your actions, maybe even hurt by them.

What’s more, they may not understand why you’ve acted this way or what their role in the relationship is supposed to be.

Sometimes women have to spell it all out for men, otherwise they have no idea what’s going on or how to act.

2) You may feel anxious

It can be quite unpleasant or painful when your partner pulls away from you in the relationship.

If you’ve left your man, he may worry that you don’t want to come back, and fear that he’s lost you forever.

In fact, you may even be feeling anxious about your relationship in general. You are probably wondering how his actions could have hurt your feelings, where he went wrong, or what he could have done differently.

3) What would a talented advisor say?

The signs in this article will give you an idea of how a man feels when you walk away from him.

Still, love and dating issues can be confusing at the best of times, especially since your situation is unique to you.

So could I help you get some outside guidance?

After a really challenging breakup, I found that talking to a “Your Psychic” advisor was very helpful.

I was always very rational and doubted these options. But opening myself up to the possibility of listening to someone with a different perception showed me that there is much more than what we can see for ourselves.

The advisor I spoke to was friendly, understanding and really knew what he was talking about.

My loving reading gave me the guidance I was looking for (and needed) during a painful and confusing time.

4) You can feel anger and hatred

Now, if your relationship ended abruptly, he may feel angry and even hate and resent you.

If you left him for another guy, he may feel jealous and resentful.

The idea of you with another boy is not something that is pleasant to any man, especially if he is someone possessive.

And sometimes you will find it difficult to get rid of those thoughts despite your efforts to do so.

The ego is very powerful in some people and will cause them to hold on to angry feelings.

5) It can become obsessive

He may have a hard time accepting the fact that you have left him. In his mind, you could still be his girl.

He won’t have the conscience to give you the space you need and see if you return to him.

Instead, it will try to hold on to you as tightly as it can.

Don’t be surprised if he:

Starts texting you 50 times a day, calls you all the time, Shows up at your home or workplace, Asks your family and friends to talk to you on his behalf,

The reality is that he cannot imagine life without you and will do everything in his power to get you back.

6) You can feel replaceable

Being with you made him feel special.

He thought they had something good, that you loved him and thought he was special.

The fact that you left him was a huge surprise and now he feels replaceable, like he’s worthless, like he’s not special, like he’s not good enough.

It’s hard for a man to grasp the fact that some relationships just don’t work out and he feels sorry for himself instead.

In short, it feels worthless.

7) Think you have rejected it

He may feel rejected by your actions.

He’s not sure why you left him and now he feels like he’s not good enough for you. He’ll think you must have found someone better than him.

This feeling of rejection is a low blow to your ego and most likely your pride.

And as if that weren’t enough, this could bring up feelings from the past, for example if he was rejected by other women in his life.

The problem is that often, instead of trying to figure out what went wrong, or how to grow from the experience, a man will wallow in self-pity.

Feelings of rejection are very painful for a guy. Then he can ignore them and instead focus on trying to win you back.

Deep down he thinks that if he can get you to come back to him, everything will be fine again.

8) You think you have lost control

We all want to feel like we are in control of our lives.

But here’s the thing: we can’t control everything that happens to us.

So when you walked away, the realization that he wasn’t really in control of anything hit him hard.

You probably didn’t see it coming and have been left feeling helpless. Not just in regards to you, but in every aspect of his life.

You may even have a hard time making sense of doing anything.

You will ask yourself: “What is the point?” because ultimately, everything is out of his hands.

In short: you may feel like you no longer have control over anything.

9) You may feel guilty

If you have finally walked away, he may feel guilty. It is possible that your distance gives him the opportunity to reflect on the relationship. He will have no choice but to think about what has happened for you to walk away.

So a guy can feel guilty for many different reasons.

Maybe he feels bad that he didn’t do everything in his power to make you happy.

Or maybe he did something wrong and that’s why he feels guilty about it: from cheating on you to ignoring your needs to being rude to you, the list of possibilities is long.

And there could be one more reason why he might feel guilty, he might feel relieved that the relationship is over. That’s right, sometimes people feel guilty for not being more in love with their partner.

You see, neither of you may have done anything wrong, but the relationship just wasn’t working out.

They both gave their best, but still they weren’t meant to be together. He just didn’t want to be the one to give up.

Since you’re the one who walked away from the relationship, you feel a sense of relief that you’re free, but you also feel guilty that you couldn’t make it work.

10) He thinks he is alone

When we are in a relationship we get used to having someone constantly in our lives. So when you walk away it’s logical that he feels alone.

You were there when they woke up, and when they went to sleep. You were there through thick and thin.

Now, there is only emptiness. That you are no longer there leaves him with a feeling of loneliness.

11) You may feel depressed

When a man is abandoned it can cause a great emotional shock, especially if it is not something he expected.

It’s like you dropped a bomb on him that he never saw coming.

Then he’ll feel down and think about what could have been and the fact that it didn’t work out for you.

In my experience, some guys plan their lives and if things don’t work out, they don’t know what to do, they just break down.

And the longer they have been in a relationship, the more difficult it will be for him.

12) He will think that he must prove to you that he is worth it

Your withdrawal could also trigger something positive in him. If you left because you wanted him to take you seriously, it might work.

Whatever problems you were having, it could be that he wasn’t interested in making things work.

Now that you’re gone, it’s another story. She finally realizes what she has lost and wants to prove her worth to you.

He wants to show you that he can change, that he can be a better person. He wants you to know that he may be all you need.

13) He thinks he must get you back

You might also feel that your story is not over.

He might think that the only option is to get you back.

The fact that you walk away could have served as a wake-up call for him. It was an opportunity for him to take a step back and reevaluate his life and his relationship.

He might have realized that he made some mistakes and think that if you give him one more chance, things will work out.

14) Think it is an opportunity to start over

Finally, he may feel that your leaving is an opportunity to start over.

He may miss you and feel sad that you’re not together anymore, but at the same time, things haven’t been good for a while, so he actually thinks that this may all be for the best.

In other words, you feel like it’s time to turn the page, start seeing new people, and try new things.

The no contact rule

If you walked away from your guy to prove a point because you felt like he wasn’t paying enough attention to you or not taking things seriously, you may be interested in learning how to get him to come back to you.

I’m talking about employing the “no contact rule”. Now that you’ve walked away and broken up with him, you might wish he’d come back so you’d accept him again.

The no contact rule is basically stopping all contact with your ex for 30 to 60 days.

Now, I know this sounds like a long time, and you may be wondering how you can stay away from him for that amount of time.

But it’s important that you don’t get back in touch with your ex during this time.

Because? Because it will give him time to miss you and make him more willing to work on the relationship when you do get back in touch. All this if he really cares about you. It is important that you know that if his feelings for you are no longer the same, there will not be much you can do to change it.

This is the truth: many men don’t realize what they have until they lose it.

So how to use the no contact rule?

1) Let him know you need some space

It’s always a good idea to let him know before cutting off all communication with him.

I mean, it’s common courtesy. You don’t want him to worry that something happened to you.

So, the best thing would be to tell him that even though you still love him, you need some time away from him to think about what you want and what is best for you.
