Hi,

My g/f broke up with me after 4 months. She didn't have a valid reason for it. Yet, she wants to be my best friend. What does that mean/show?

Say to her:

"Friendship? Who said any thing about friendship!"

You are obviously still in to her; and you always will be until you take her out your life. The sooner you move on, the sooner you can meet a new lovely lady, good luck :)

I can tell you what this means she wants to let you down slowly, makes her feel better about herself, as she is probably feeling guilty if she dumped you. It could be that she wants to keep an eye on you, but I doubt it.

Bev Conolly agony auntIt might also be because she doesn't want to feel guilty, and by saying you should be "friends", she gets to feel like she hasn't hurt your feelings as much as breaking off all contact.

The ball's in your court on this one. If you don't feel you can handle seeing her socially now that the relationship's over, there's nothing wrong with saying so.

willywombat agony auntIt generally means she wants to keep an eye on you.....or that she wasn't ready for an intense relationship with you. But she is willing to be friends.

If you dont feel up for this then tell her no.
