What should I do if my ex girlfriend says she needs time?

[carlroy]

She told me that I shouldn't keep asking about us because its stressing her out. she ask a favor just to give her time and stop worrying and paranoid at times I just wait. should I be positive about this? till when should I wait..? should I stop texting for a while?

BACK OFF!

I can tell just by your typing that you are super clingy and the fastest way to push a girl away is by being clingy.

I know it's hard to do, and it might feel down right fake, but you HAVE to act like it doesn't bother you if you want to save the relationship. Take some time and focus on doing things that you enjoy. Hang out with you friends, get caught up on work you've been meaning to get caught up on, or try something new you've always wanted to try before.

I know it may seem impossible to get your mind off her, but rule of thumb is:

Anytime you're thinking about her, in that same moment she's NOT thinking about you.

So the more you can do to keep your mind off her, the better. The whole time she will be thinking about you and therefore, missing you. She will start feel like you're drifting away and she will panic and come back to you - it will force her to see you in a new light and she will want you all over again.

Being in a relationship is the same as teasing a cat with a cat toy:

When your actively playing with the cat, teasing it and never letting it completely get ahold of the toy, the cat is excited and engaged. The second you put that toy down and let the cat have it, he/she will bat at it a few times, get bored, and walk away.

It's human nature to want what we can't have and from the sounds of it, you've already given her everything you got.

I'm telling you, BACK OFF NOW or kiss your relationship goodbye.

She wants time so giveit to her, continuing to pressure her when she asks you not to will only push her away. I don't know what the outcome will be because I don't know the whole story but I can say respecting her wishes will help you. Text her occasionally to tell her you love her if you already saythat o each other or that you miss her, say the sweet nothing's that girls like to hear, by occasionally I mean once every couple days or a week. Just give her time :) good luck

She's deciding if she can really stay friends so leave her alone for a while its better she told you rather than ignoring/cutting you off with no explaination

[thatkidfromcanadia]

I'm in your exact position right now. Just give her space. No contact for a couple of weeks. After a little while, talk to her like a friend really casually, and don't bring up your relationship issues or the break up.

[Bleep]

Back off and drop all communication. If she was really into you, she'll get back to you.

It sucks, but f*** it.

[throdd]

sounds like it's time to move on dude, before she starts telling everybody how pathetic you are

[prophecy]

stop kidding yourself. it's over. forget about her. find a new one.
