Background info: Met up with a girl at a concert start of november, turned out she was the bassist in one of my best mates band. So we hit it off, became good friends very quick and two weeks later we were going out together. She had a really rough holiday period, at times it was too much for her to deal with. She grew very distant over the past two weeks. So saturday night she ended it, her reason being she can't be in a relationship right now. We weren't even going out 2 months. She said the next morning she was already regretting it, but being single is so much easier for her right now. She wants to remain good friends though. At first I was mad and I wouldn't give her an answer on that, but now I've come to realise that if she couldn't give it 100% it wasn't going to work anyway. Part of me wants to be with her, but that part is getting smaller by the day. Now I want to go back to being friends, the way we were so happily before. It's only been a couple of days, and I was going NC for a while in case she changed her mind, but I think now that she won't. It'd be back to square one and would end in hurt again, and I think she knows that. So even though it's only been a couple of days, should I contact her and tell her that I'd really like to be friends again? If so, can you help me phrase the message, I've got my draft below.
Hey ____. How are you, how you getting on? First off I'd just like to say I've done some thinking, and if this is what you really want then ok, you know what's best for you, and I can understand now. I'm missing you, we had good times which I'll hold onto, but I could sense lately it just wasn't going to work out. I was emotional and stupid sat night, and I apologise. I really enjoy hanging out with you though. So what do you say we make a fresh start again as good mates?
