gebonez Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 We broke up about a week ago. I lived with her and her 3 year old daughter. She is in the process of going through a divorce. Out of no where she came home from work one day and said she needed time to figure things out for her self and her daughter, I can respect that totally. I Love them both with all my heart. The real question is how do i give her the space she asks for when i have to see her every day at work and on most days we work pretty close with each other. I have not contacted her outside of work. the only contact we have had outside of work is to work out some of the bills we had together and the dog. I really want to be with her. I do not know how to give her space at work. Got any advise?
v33 Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Wow, quite a situation. When she tells you she needs space to figure things out she is telling you not to ask her about, discuss or pressure her about the relationship between the two of you. I don't think you should NOT talk to her, be polite and supportive but even though it will be hard, do not act like her partner. Just keep any interactions light. She might feel that you are adding stress at a time that she needs to make decisions for herself without any outside influence. It sounds like you are doing the right thing, keeping it business related and leaving emotion out of it. If you are strong through this and show her you really do care about her best interests by being a confident man who can handle something hard like this and keep his dignity she will likely have even more respect and attraction to you once she does her soul-searching.
