This is so confusing and weird

[whatnow23]

So after a day and a half of breaking up with me she calls me saying she misses me and misses saying good night to me. She says she wants to still talk but not get back together. I know and she knows this is a mistake (she broke up with me) but she doesn't want to admit it. She is very prideful and always has been. She said she was willing to still talk and go out with me and maybe I could win her back although she would not fully commit to a second chance. She said I only had a 25 percent chance of getting her to change her mind although I know that was much higher. I knew it wasn't the right thing to do but I wanted to try to make things right so we went out and I took her out to a picnic which she always kinda wanted. It went good she almost got us attacked by ducks because she fed them and they all flocked toward us. It was nice but it admittedly felt weird. Talking to me throughout that day felt weird kinda forced almost. Today she seemed herself and I felt bad trying to imply the no contact rule but I thought it was the right thing to do because i felt no matter how hard I tried She would not fully give me another chance unless I gave her some space. What should I do keep the no contact or try to win her back by going out and talking like in the beginning.

She sounds incredibly arrogant. I would go no initated contact if I were you - let her make the running.

I wouldn't contact her, at all. Give her all the space she wants until she realizes you're not following along. Then let her drop her ego and try to win you back.

sounds like my ex... the next day after we broke up she texted me saying hi, telling me she missed me and felt bad about the break up... I told her she already broke up with me so why she is talking to me and you know what she said?... She said that we we'll be together again down the road after all and Im the only guys she wants to be with and whats wrong with ex talking to each other... I just go with the flow of our conversation for that day feeling weird and after that day I initiated no contact (without telling her)... Just ignore your ex, I dont know what are their intentions but I wont be good for you, you dont need to bother on how they feel because they are one who cut us on their life and whatever happens to them that is their choice...

She broke up with you then she realized that meant she would be losing her best friend, and the day-to-day routine and contact she is used to. She probably is feeling lonely - just because she initiated the breakup doesn't mean she isn't feeling blue about it. However, saying things like maybe you could win her back seems manipulative, as if she wants to keep you around just enough so that she doesn't have to really experience all the feelings that go along with her decision to end it with you.

 

Just my interpretation, of the situation.
