Scenario
No contact when he blocked you first
Being blocked is a specific humiliation: the silence you were bracing for arrived, but you didn't get to choose it. That difference matters, and it's the part worth working on.

Write Kris today.
If you'd rather talk to a person than read a page — tell Kris what's happening and she'll write back herself.
What's happening right now
The sting isn't only loss, it's loss of agency. Your brain reads a closed door as an unfinished sentence and will keep rehearsing what you'd say if it opened. Blocking removes the option but not the urge, which is why this version can feel harder before it gets easier.
Three things to do today
Block back — for you, not at him
Symmetry returns the choice to your side of the table. It also stops the daily check to see whether anything changed.
Write the unsent letter once
All of it, on paper, in one sitting. The sentence needs finishing somewhere and it doesn't need finishing with him.
Take the door out of the room
Delete the number, leave the mutual group, tell friends you don't want updates. Every remaining channel is an open tab in your head.

The thought that keeps looping
“Being blocked means he never cared at all.”
Blocking is usually about his capacity to sit with discomfort, not about the size of what you had. It tells you about his coping, not about your worth.
Questions women ask
Should I reach out from another number?
No. It converts a painful ending into one you'll be embarrassed about, and it hands the last word to your worst hour.
Will he unblock me?
Sometimes, often weeks later, usually when he's lonely. Build a life that makes it a mild event rather than a rescue.
How do I get closure without a conversation?
Closure is a decision you make about the story, not information he supplies. That's the work in the journal and in the circle.
