First off, I am a girl, and I am dating another girl. Now on to the problem. Ive been dating Molly almost 11 months now. A few months ago, things got really rocky between us, so we took a short break, and things got alot better, and we didnt fight or anything. Now, about 2-3 weeks ago, she, just out of the blue, says she wants a break, a longer one, and when I asked why, she said she didn't know how she felt anymore. She says she is starting to fall out of love with me, and that she needed space so she could work it out. It was really hard for me, at first, but now I am getting better. Now the thing is, she is sending mixed signals. Sometimes it seems like things may be getting better, others, not so much. She even tells me that I can 'do stuff' with other girls, should I choose to (I dont want to) and then when I hang out with someone that something could potentialy happen with, I think she gets kinda jelouse (but I'm not sure if I am reading signals wrong). Now I have 2 questions: The whole doing stuff with other people. Is she testing me? Or possibly she wants to not feel so guilty if things dont work? And my second question is, How long should I wait for her? Our one year is January 20th. Im only 17, I have invested a year of my life into our relationship, I am not ready to give up yet. What can I do?

I say talk to her and hope things get etter. Tell her that that you don't want to give up! Sometimes it really does work to have a break. Then the person realizes how much they love their boyfriend/girlfriend. Just talk to her. She has something to say and so do you.

I don't think that you should be "waiting" for her at all - if she wants you back, thats cool, but if she doesnt, there are other girls out there. I know its hard to break up with someone, but just in case it happens, you should be like looking around for someone you might want to be with (for when you get over your girlfriend). I hope everything goes okay! [ l0stiNth0uGht020's advice column | Ask l0stiNth0uGht020 A Question ]
frenchfries21 answered Sunday December 12 2004, 5:32 pm: i think you should give it some time, things may work out, or they may not. and also, it may be a signal that you need to try looking for a guy, instead of a girl. thats a different story though. so your gonna have to let time decide.
hope i helped

Try not to take relationships too seriously. You have your whole life ahead of you, with plenty of new faces to meet and greet. Being part of a couple means giving the other partner plenty of space when needed. By all means, it sounds like you both could use some space. Time rules all.

social_distortion69 answered Sunday December 12 2004, 3:20 pm: I think you should talk to her and ask her what she wants to do. and tell her how muck you love her if you truely love her. and if you both love eachother enough i think you should work out your problems. and if not, maybe you should take a break to figure things out!

mysticpixie05 answered Sunday December 12 2004, 3:15 pm: it could be that she is testing you, so to play it on the safe side, dont do anything just yet with other girls. and if she asks you if you ahve done anything and why not that way you can let her know that you didnt want to, you only wanted her and that you were having such a hard time with your break away from her. as for waiting for her, find out from her if there is a chance of you two getting back together at all. if not then that is your que to just move on. if she says yes there is a possibility then wait for her as long as you'd like. if you cant wait for her then mess around with some other girls until she is ready to come back to you. i am not say you have to date them and i am not saying that you dont have to either. its your choice. if you want to date and mess around, ok, and if not, you would just rather mess aound and not date, ok. but talk to her first, before putting your whole life on hold for her. see if there is a chance for you two again if not then you dont have to wait and you know that it is ok to go around with other girls. if things dont work out and she is feeling guilty then theres nothing that wil change that guilt. so dont worry about her feeling guilty. but i hope this helps. good luck and ahve fun.
