Search Results: girlfriend needs space

My girlfriend of 3 years and I broke up 2 months ago. She went from saying she wanted it to work and she loves me but need time to focus on her and school. Well I begged for 2 months and I think I pushed her away. She now says she doesn't know the future but she doesn't think she will want to be with me. She is asking for space now and says she is still here if I need her, but 99% of the time ignores me. I haven' t talked to her for 5 days and I plan on waiting at least 3 more weeks. My question is what length of no contact is the best? Could she just be saying that she doesn't want it to work so I leave her alone? Will the space calm her down? Do you have any advice for no contact?

My girlfriend of 3 years broke up with me a few months back. I begged the whole time which I know I shouldn't but I can't seem to stop. she's asked me for space and says she still wants me in her life but right now she doesn't want to talk. I feel empty inside like I lost a part of me I have a hard time eating and sleeping, I wake up in the middle of the night feeling sick. I feel like I put on a happy face but inside im broken. I asked her if she ever sees us together again and to be straight and to the point because I really just need to know. All she says is "I dont know the future, but right now I dont think so." I feel like that is a yes and a no at the same time. Is there still a chance? Maybe I pushed too much, I just feel like she is blinded by the anger of me talking to her that she refuses to feel anything more than that. I just want my best friend back, I was going to ask her to marry me, I've never felt so much love for a person before in my life, its hard to keep that bottled up.
