TryingToStayStrong Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 My gf just broke up with me after 2 1/2 years. I am 20 and she is 17. She says that it is not me, she just needs time to herself and does not want a boyfriend right now. Immediately I was devastated and begged to work it out, but it did not work. I called her after a week and tried to be positive, but it seemed if she may have been a little annoyed by me calling her. Did I make a big mistake by keeping up with her too much at first, or is it fixable? I know that we are both very young, but I do not know what to do in this situation. I really think that deep down she loves me, and I think we could work it out and have a beautiful relationship. I know I should give her space for a while, but I want her to know how I feel. How long should I wait before asking her to be mine again? What can I do to make her want to be with me again? If anyone has any ideas, let me know. Thanks!!!

I know I should give her space for a while, but I want her to know how I feel. the next time you contact her tell her you respect her decision and will not push her to do anything she does not want (it has to come from deep down, like you mean it) she will feel that you are not pressuring her and will take time to think bout your relationship.

All i can say is that what's done is done. i like your nick name..... do that! stay strong, since she asked for space, she should not expect you to sit around and prove your undying love.... you must not. you have one life to live and so does she. carry on with the other things in your life, work/studies, your dreams and goals, your friends, your passions and hobbies.... let her come back to you in her own time. you do realise that you cant bend her hand to do anything right now. so what can you do? Chill!!!! If she thought this relationship is as beautiful as you describe it, she will come back. you wanna be a wonderful bf? give her what she wants.... for now she wants space.
