How can I justify my coldness towards her without revealing that I love her?

Question - (3 November 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 5 November 2008)
A male United Kingdom age 30-35, *hLawdWhat DoIDo writes:

I'm in a bit of a situation. Last week I told my unrequited love that I really liked her and that I'm going to need some space so that I can get over her. She disagreed and thought that cutting me off was a bad idea, saying that we should just carry on as normal. As far as I can tell she believes this is a simple crush and no drastic action is needed, she is wrong.

I got rid of everything that reminded me of her and removed her from my phone-book but kept her on Facebook. Despite putting her on the list of people I do not want to hear about in my news feed her picture has cropped up multiple times, causing me significant pain. I decided that it would be best to delete her from Facebook too.

She has just sent me a text asking me "What's going on, why have you deleted me from Facebook?".

How can I justify my coldness towards her without revealing the fact that I love her? I can't get over her if she is going to keep contacting me.

Thanks.

Tell her the almost truth.

Tell her that you need space to get over her. She may disagree but she does not really get a choice in this.

Just tell her calmly that you will be back in touch once you are ready to be friends again.

You don't need to tell her you love her, you've already told her and you now just need to tell her she was wrong and you need to cut contact.

Good Luck!! xx
