So, my ex and I broke up about 2 weeks ago, and now she's told me that she wants me back.
We weren't together for all that long, but were very close in the months preceding us becoming an item.
A few days ago, a mutual friend asked me why I thought she had broken up with me. The bizarre thing was the specificity of the question, as I was asked whether I thought us ending had anything to do with this other guy who also liked her (he used to be a friend of mine, but now I kinda hate his guts).
The next day, she asked me the same question herself, and when I inquired as to why she cared what I thought, she told me that she loves me and that while I thought I had done something wrong, it was her, and that she broke up with me because she was scared of opening up to someone, because she thought she'd come across as clingy and needy. Before we got together, it was her who made the first move, telling me how she felt about me, but after that, when I showed any affection, she ignored it.
Right now, I can't trust her. I still care about her, even though I know I shouldn't, but I can't believe her when she says she's fallen for me. On the other hand, I can empathise with her on some level, as I've had major trust issues for years and still find it very difficult to not bottle up how I feel, although I was honest with her.
So, should I sit with her, talk about everything that went wrong and then see if things could work? Or just leave it?
Put the internet to work for you.
