I'm telling you man, you're only hurting yourself here. I've been in those shoes plenty of times. When a girl says wishy washy crap like that, saying she unsure or doesn't want to be involved, It means she's over the relationship. Girls break up with you in their minds months before they ever do the real deal.
Letting her know that you miss her will do nothing for you at this point. The only thing it would do is cause her to run more or not talk to you and she'll be the happier one. Think about it, she could be already moved on with her life, maybe even talking to new guys and you're still stuck thinking about her every day and before you go to bed and what not. She's robbing you of your confidence and time whether you know it or not. Don't give her the time of day anymore. I hate to be blunt but this is how it works. I strongly suggest you keep yourself busy, go to the gym, take classes, do work, hang with friends, talk up some other girls. Thinking about her and thinking of ways to get her back is like wishing for rain in the desert. It won't happen.
But if you truly want to go against my advice and try getting her back, then the only way you can do that (possibly) is by showing her you've moved on in a genuine way. Don't give her another second of your time, don't contact her, be productive and most importantly be happy. Even in the beginning stages. Just be optimistic so if she does see you or hear from you by somebody else, you seem to be enjoying life and happy. That will screw with her mind and make her over think everything if she truly did have feelings for you because girls are insecure. She'll wonder why you're so happy without her or with that other girl or whatever. This will make her curious and jealous and probably will want you back. Now I don't suggest you do that cause I believe once its over, its over. Everything is different and won't be the same after a break up.
SNAP OUT OF IT MAN. You're only shooting yourself in the foot. She probably isn't the one, go find some new girl how great of a guy you are.
In life you date around and have fun, if someone doesn't work out then you go date someone else. There is so much out there, you just have to open your eyes.

Been there, done that.
She'll tell you how far to go, how long to be silent, what pokes are OK, others not.
These will come in many ways.
Smile, frown, looking away, looking at you, even yelling when you get too close or don't get IT (even though she didn't explain the plan of IT).
What's going on is her rethinking the rest of her life ... and this typically goes on until she passes 30 years old or something horrible happens (like you cheat on her in marriage).
She may be flirting with another guy(s), lifestyle or even life security (retirement plans, employment, other peoples' money). If you want the best for her, you'll let her search and busy yourself with being the best choice at the end of her quest. It's probably OK to post good news about promotions, jobs ... and other personal items she thinks could be improved or she needs to be happy & grow.
IF
she comes back, it will b e tighter, closer bond and probably forever. If not, you've saved yourself a LOAD of marriage grief but can still be friends & share life, happiness at arm's length. Think "double dating" at best, fun but with no "I want to be alone" fits & cycles.
Im guilty of doing this to my ex...it was during a time when I was trying to see my life with him and..i just couldnt. space means I care about you I don't want to hurt you but I don't want to be with you I just don't know how to tell you this without hurting you...lose lose situation..but in the end she is telling you exactly what she wants and you need to respect it 100 percent...if my ex would have given me the space and respected me enough to give me what I asked for (SPACE)...who knows...we probably would have been together now and have a much better relationship...surfinforlife knows what he's talking about.
now I'm much wiser and I know that I need to be clear with my choices so if I need space from a guy nowadays...that means break up.
Hi! :) Hmm, just tell her with whole sincerity... That you're letting her go but you will be willing to wait for her with all your might.. :) Maybe she just needs time to be sure of her feelings for you.. :)
Or this is a test if you will pursue her despite her question of letting her go..
Warning:
Learn to wait but be ready for the possibilities. :) Prove how much you love her but ask her what she really wants so that you won't be disappointed or down or be hurt before your heart is totally crashed and will have to take a long time to recover.. :)
Also, tell and prove her you are the improved version of her ex boyfriend already.. :)
If you love her, let her go (completely. If she loves you she will come back. I used to believe if you love someone set him free, then hunt him down and kill him. But that is against the law and can be messy and costly. Let her go..when you really let her go and she thinks she lost you she'll most likely want you back. Don't be a fool, because she's just looking for greener pastures. Let her Go!
She may grow-up and actually come back. By them maybe you will have out grown her.

Nothing wrong with her thinking you moved on. Actually would be better :)
If you make her think that you are over her she might want you back more.
buy her some manacles ?
