I haven’t talked to this girl in 6 weeks and I want to say that I miss her.
The complication is that we dated for over 10 months and it's been almost 5 months since she left and I still care deeply about her.
There is a long story story behind all of this but it isn't entirely relevant. Basically we both had some personal problems and she decided to break things off. I didn’t take the break-up especially well either and did some things to push her away. (Small things like insisting that we talk about it right away)
As another note, saying to just move on is not helpful. I hear that enough from my family and friends. While it may be the easy thing to do from an outside perspective, I just cannot say goodbye to this girl completely. I believe very strongly that the two of us can work together, and quite frankly I still love her so there is nowhere to move on to for the time being. I can't search for something I have already found.
I was going to text or call her on the 4th of July but then I thought I should ask here first. Well, it's a few days after the 4th of July so I'm a little late in asking for advice, but everything is still relevant.
I don't want to upset her by any means and patience is always an option. If she is happy and I'm upset that is an acceptable circumstance at least for the time being. I really just want to let her know that I'm thinking about her and that my heart still longs for her without coming off as pushy.
She has asked for space, and even though it was a while ago I'd like to respect that so, just outright saying I miss you may not be the best option...
And by calling her, texting, or making any contact with her is giving her the idea of desperation of you and that is pushing her away.
I understand that you need her and that you care for her badly. But I don't think she deserves your time if she doesn't see how important and specially you are.
I think you should wait for a while and if she didn't call you or anything then you definitely should move on.
And distances is a great way to do it, i know it's going to be so hard the first months and so, but this is the only healthy way. If your going to keep running after her, she is going to keep pushing you away and that will lead to you hurting more.
Lianna25 answered Wednesday July 8 2009, 4:41 pm: you need to be really honest with her, tell her how you feel about her and how she makes you feel. alot of guys are usually not the ones to express their feelings but it really helps us girls alot when they are. its worth a try, be very open with her..tell her you miss her terribly. Do this face to face ONLY. [ Lianna25's advice column | Ask Lianna25 A Question ]
