We were friends for 5 years and mates for 2. She talked about breaking up for a month and finally broke up with me a week before xmas. It was a good breakup, if there is such a thing. I told her to take her things but she left a lot of her stuff behind and decided to wrap my xmas presents at the same time too. Since then I have told her to take her things 3 times but she still hasn't. We had a bank account together and I insisted to tell her to close it because we were no longer together. She finally contacted me on valentines day to let me know she had written a letter of closure to the bank and it was done. I insisted to her to mail the letter to me and to not come to my home. She came to my house the day after valentines day to personally drop of the letter, while she could have mailed it. What's up with that.
Girls can feel really vulnerable on Valentine's Day. If you are single (especially newly single), the whole day is rubbed in your face. It can make us feel sad and lonely, and sometimes in order to feel better, the first thing we think to do is talk to an ex. Valentine's Day will remind you of past loves and past Valentine's Days that you have shared, so it's only natural for us to want that feeling again. Your ex is clearly not over you. The best thing you can do if there is absolutely no chance of you two getting back together is to cut off communication with her for a little while. It will hurt at first, but in the long run it will make it easier for her to get over you.
