Depressed over a REALLY SUDDEN break up
Posted: 03-26-08 22:30pm

Okay so my girlfriend and I of 5 months and not one fight just broke up the other night. She wants to be just best friends for now.

This is the reason why.

She said it finally hit her how she is always feeling pressured and upset about "things" that we did. We did not have sex but we did things. And now she is saying that she only did it to make me happy and that she feels really messed up and that she doesn't feel like innocent anymore and that she has a clean slate anymore. Let it be known that I never pressured her at all and the whole time i thought it was something special and she did it because she did it because she wanted to do it.

She doesn't want to be in a relationship anymore because she doesn't want to feel this way anymore. She doesn't want to be in a relationship with anybody to be exact. She told me she will always like me as more than a friend too. Me and her still text and talk on the phone and she wants to hangout with me and stuff. So I really don't know what she wants and she doesn't exactly know if we are going to get back together. I think that this kind of thing can be worked out. She told me that she does not want to stop speaking to me and that she thinks things will work out maybe because she says she is just a basket case and stuff. I just dont want to be left waiting around and nothing ever happens. That is not fair on my part ya know?

What do you guys think? Please help!
She really does mean the world to me and I am feeling so awfully depressed about this whole thing and it's really really bothering me.

If she does mean that much to you, you should listen to her requests to just be friends. I believe you that you didnt force her into anything, but maybe she just doesnt feel ready. Just rememebr, it is better to have her as a friend in your life than to lose her for good.

Does she eventually want to get back together with you and she jsut wants to be single for a while?
Anything I can do to help, please let me know

Sometimes girls do things like this, and it isn't anything you are actually responsible for or can do anything about. If she wants to take a break and just be friends for now, you should do that. Taking a break from the more intimate parts of a relationship can be a very good thing for a couple. You will be able to connect on a much deeper level and get to know each other more.

I don't think you will be left waiting around forever. Besides, if she really does mean the world you, it will be more than well worth the wait to getting back together with her again. There is no reason why you shouldn't be open with her with your feelings and ask her how she is coming a long with hers every so often. It's your right to know where things are going, just don't put the pressure on her since she's afraid of that.

As Coliejo said, it is better to have her as a friend than lose her forever, but remember also that no one is holding you bound to her. You are still free to do what you want, just remember that you have her heart on the line....whatever it is feeling.

Others will prob dissagree with me But if you still love her and she doesnt want to get back together then its best for you NOT to remain friends. If/When she decides to date other people and your "friends" it will mess with you quite a bit mate. From Personaly experience you both have to be happy with the situation or its not going to work. If your Ready for a relationship but she isnt then its not fair to either one of you.


In Conclusion you need to be happy as well. Find something you both can live with.

Its a real good thing she wants to be friends with you. Just try to go get used to being friends again - if there was a strong friendship before it should be easy. And tell yourself you still love her - which you do - but now it has to be on a friendship level. It wont be so hard and you wont feel so much heartbreak because you two will be hanging out and stuff. And Im almost sure she will want a relationship again atleast she didnt write you off completly.

Just enjoy the friendship you two have and things will get easier with time.

I wish you luck and PM if you need to talk. Talking helps alot
