Well that is some good advice eclipse. I have yet to see my ex since we broke up. We are planning to get together this weekend. I am hoping that it is not weird between us so we can still hangout as friends. Even if I can't get back with her, just having her around would make all the difference in the world right now.

Thanks for the input guys and girls. Although my heart is broken for now, I am ever so slightly on the road to recovery. I still want to be friends and hang out, not so much to try to get her back but because we were friends before we got together and I want to be friends after all of this. I feel as if I owe it to myself to at least give being friends a try. If it fails then I will have to cut the ties all together. I just feel that by being friends with her, I can show her why she fell in love with me in the first place. I think the downfall of the relationship was moving in together too soon. We were only together about a year before we moved in together. Everything went great at first, but over the last 4 months we started to argue more. Not big arguments, just everyday stuff that we never fought about before. I am just wondering now if maybe she is just scared that if she held on it would end up hurting even more. I say this because of the fact that she has seen what can happen, ie: Her parents got divorced, and the last boyfriend she had treated her like shit after they were together for about a year and a half. Does anyone think that this could be an underlying reason for the decision she has made?

Hello all, I am new to the board but am needing some advice. This has been the topic of many posts. But here it goes anyways. My girlfriend of two years, whom I love more than anyone in the world broke up with me about three weeks ago because "She just felt we became closer friends than anything". That was the worst thing I ever wanted to hear. However she says that she still loves me as a friend, and that she appreciates everything I did for her when we were together. Just wondering what makes girls change their minds about things like this, and if there may ever be a chance of rekindling the flame? She says that she wants to remain friends and hang out and stuff. But what does that mean for me? Thanks in advance
