She says she still loves me and she will come back to me when she is ready for a relationship again. She is very genuine and it was obviously hard for her to do but if she loves me surely we could find a way of workin around it.What has gone wrong in the relationship and should I try to convince her she is making a mistake or is she lying when she says she still wants me?

reader, anonymous, writes (26 February 2007): My gut feeling is that she still loves you and would genuinely like to stay friends. As a single, studying mother of a three year old I know how hard it is to give enough time to my daughter, without neglecting friendships, family etc. Relationships are risky, but time spent with our children is necessity. If you can handle just being friends with her and are patient enough to do this, then be her friend, and see what eventuates. If you feel you need someone to commit to straight away then you would have to move on and find someone more available.
2 is a very difficult age, but once my daughter hit 3 I found it much easier to get out and about, meet new people are rekindle old friendships.
Hope this helps.
