Hello.

My girlfriend of 6 years ended the relationship about 2 months ago. She cited the relationship wasn't progressing, being that I never proposed to her and/or lived with her. In our 6th and last year, we tried to maintain a long distance relationship, had broken up twice but this 3rd and latest breakup is our longest and most permanent.

I've tried to reach out to her, reasoned/groveled with her via text, FB messaging, email and phone calls - to no avail. She sent me an email a month ago, asking me to stop contacting her and to move on. I believe she has met/found someone else.

I'm devasted/hearbroken, I still love her and I'm at my wits end in trying to get her back. I've even proposed to her but of course, it was a "too little, too late" situation. I just want to convince her that given a final chance, I will not take the relationship for granted and do right by her - yet, I also know that it may be way too late.

Appreciate any insight, opinion, advice and help on how to get her to re-open communication with me and to ultimately get her back.

Thanks so much...

The thing is she has clearly said that it is done and over. You may love her but if things are not progressing then there is going to be a break at some point. Adding long distance does not help the situation at all.

Groveling, contacting and continuing to push will and has made it even easier for the other party to move on. Right now it does not matter whether they are with someone else or not.

It might take time on your part, but you have no choice to move on. Take this as a learning experience and whenever you are ready, when you become involved in a different relationship. Do your best not to let this experience jade you in possible better future with somebody else.

I know you were wanting advice on how to re-open lines of communication but that is ill advised at this time. You would only be making the situation worse if you continue to try to contact this person.
