Ok so my girlfriend of 2.5 years and i broke up. I thought we were doing alright she apparently thought we weren't compatible. When i asked for a second chance she said i had many chances to fix us then and didn't pay attention or listen. She says she doesn't want a boyfriend right now anyway and she just needs space and for me to not talk about us together all the time because its pushing her away.

She said that i should move on with my life and if i need to find another person then i should. She says that in the future if i change and show that i have changed that maybe we could get back together but that chances were slim. I'm not one to give up, but it hurts so bad and i don't know what to do. I would do anything for this girl. I wanted to get married to her. Please if you know any way of getting her back or any advice on what i should do please help because i don't know of any situations where things cant be repaired.

i know you probably dont want to hear this but give her some space. she obviousley needs time to think. there must have been something wrong in your relationship for her to end things like she did.

i dont think you should change for her. you are who you are and maybe the both of you really wern't compatible?

try to let her go...forget about getting back together with her...but maybe you could try being friends with her?...i know thats probably a hard thing to do after a two and a half year relationship and i know ive just said to give her space but being friends gives her the space she needs without you both having to stop contact altogether.that way you can still enjoy eachothers company...?

dont devote all of your time to trying to get back together with her though...go out...meet new people...who knows, you might find someone who can accept you for who you are...someone who doesn't want you to change for them?

i hope i've helped
