I looked for similar stories or answers first and I couldn't find a proper fit to match my particular situation. maybe I over looked it or I'm just being biased but hopefully I can get some outside opinions. I'll try and make this brief. me and my ex girlfriend have been dating for over a year and we recently broke up. it was somewhat mutual because our relationship had been rocky lately (lack of affection, miscommunication). on top of that she's a few years younger (about to be 21 and me going on 27) and she has a lot she's still figuring out job and career-wise and stress from a lot of other situations, so the stress from our relationship is becoming overwhelming. this I can understand and she asked that she has time alone from me for awhile which left me confused, because she wants no contact at all. but on my side I thought it would be best we at least remain friends instead of becoming strangers or have to act like each other doesn't exist...which side is better for us right now? her side is she wants time to think about if she can sort out her feelings and self and then see if we can fix our relationship once she has a clear head. I accepted this and left her to herself for a few days now but I still feel confused. I asked her to be honest and tell me if there's somebody else or if she would like to see if there's somebody else and she tells me no and isn't afraid to hurt me if it's the truth. she's never done anything to hurt me before so I trust her, but I still just feel like this is wrong. should I continue to leave her alone or do what I had first suggested and remain loose friends. after all she had said she isn't on the lookout for somebody new (not even a hook up she says) so how would being friends hurt...unless it's just inevitable to bring up our relationship? thanks for reading and thanks in advance for input. | |||
