My ex and I ended it a year and 4 months ago after a 6 year relationship and we have a 6 year old daughter. We were both to blame for the break up and we both met other people for a while after. Now we both single again and she wants to be friends, we have been hanging aout a lot, having dinners, school functions with my daughter and even a weekend away with her friends. I took her for dinner last night and everything is really cool with us. We have spoken about things and both said we have made mistakes, I have made it pretty clear that I would like to well, get back together, she just seems to want to friends. I don't know where this is going and I don't know what to look for. Am I waiting my time and is she just keeping me on a string. Some advice please

Hi,
Considering you'll have a kid together ad such an intense history behind you'll, of six years.. I'd say, even she's single and she definitely wants you back in her life too.
What she means by saying that she wats to be friends now is this :
She wants to get to know you closer since you'll have been apart for a while
And she wants you'll to start afresh
Why can't you be friends with her for a while? What is your hurry and issue?
If you really love her and want to get back, also for your little baby, show her, while you are being friendly, that you will not hurt her again. Show her that you want this and how badly you want it.

Don't stress. Go with the flow. Give her what she wants.

She is saying she wants to be able to interact for the sake of your child without any drama. Be friends with her with the understanding that you may not be a couple a again. If something more is to develop it will naturally.

Home girl, you don't think she wants to get back?

Whatever happens you're not wasting your time if you are co-parenting for the sake of your child.

I would look at it in just that way.

I don't know. Only she would know that and she may not know, but being on a friendly basis and co-parenting your child is a good thing. Let that be enough. If something else develops it will happen naturally.

I'mblogqueen - the concern should be the child, not the relationship.
