dkk1234 Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 My ex-girlfriend broke up our 2-year relationship about a month ago. It is my fault. I tend to be pushy for an immediate resolution whenever we get into an argument. She would always say "Why can't you just let things go?" I reflected on controlling my impatience through this break. I still want to get back with her. I messaged her today asking if she wants to talk again in about a month or so. She replied saying "I don't know....lets just let it be for now k?" My question is what does for now mean for other people? For me, for now means that this break is temporary and that she still needs time to think. I could be wrong, but if she really wants me to let go then I don't see the reason why she would say for now. Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.
ThatJustHappened Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 It means she's trying to keep you as her back up plan. Don't do it. 1
Damsel in Distress Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 You are focusing on the "for now" and hoping that it means there is a chance that she will want you back later. I think she more likely means that right now there is nothing she wants to discuss with you, and she just wants you to work on accepting it...and she's hoping that when "later" gets here you will be over her. I don't mean to be harsh, I just don't want you to focus on two words of that sentence to hang onto hope. I hope you will go NC and try to focus on separating your life from her. I'm sorry, I know how hard it is
Cogee Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 It means she doesn't want to talk about it. It's another way of saying "it's over, and though you want to talk about it I don't, especially not right now". Don't take that to mean she will want to talk about it again, just that she is very clearly not wanting to right now so you have to let it go and move on. 4

That's exactly what I think she meant.
Chi townD Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 Cogee said it right. Look at her actions and not her words. You put meeting up and talking out there and guess what you're not going to do..... That should be the definitive clue you're looking for.
