So almost 6 months have come to pass. As you are all aware I am still trying to recover my things and last week I sent a e-mail saying to her that if she is 100% sure we are over for could then please send my things back. 2 days later she e-mailed me saying she has a lot to say to me. I said then we need to talk. I e-mailed her a few days later for her to pick a day to talk on the phone. 3 days pass and she calls me. We talked on the phone for almost 2 hours. She said that I need to give up hope and that she is not coming back in the beginning of the conversation. Then as it went on we started to acytally talk about good and bad times and what went wrong in our relationship. For the first time in 5 months she was talking with me and answering my questions and being an adult about things. I was surprised she called but more surprised she was holding a good conversation with me.

Anyway it ended with me saying that I would like to at the least be friends or have some kind of communication with her. She said that she was not with anyone and neither was I. She then said that she wanted to move anf that its what she wants. I said she should to get out of her moms house and be on her own would be a good idea. She wants to move to another state 10 hours from me. She said she is not 100% sure but she might do it. I then said to her I will be around her area in September for my birthday and that I can swing by and get my things and maybe we can meet for a drink. I told her to take a week to think about it and about us being friends and let me know. She said that she will wait until I am there in September. I said cool I will call you when I am up there and then I can have your answer. I then said if we meet and things rekindle then fine if not then it leaves no doubt or what ifs about this whole situation and I will finally get my things. I agreed to not bother her in anyway until that date.

So when I see her in a month what do I do and if I want to get a drink with her what do I say. It seems she still has a lot to say and maybe this meeting will at least bring closure I always wanted. I am not thinking we will get back together but for her to agree to this makes me wonder coming from someone that ignored me. I was so surprised she called. I never thought she would call me even to tell me to give up. You opinions please!

Calling you is the less cowardly thing to do. It does show that she is at least mature to talk to you about the break up and not just let things hang. I give her some credit for that. However, with that in mind, I wouldn't even meet her for a drink. It might be too hard to see her again. Perhaps she could send your things... Out of sight, out of mind...

Yes that was very nice of her, but after 5 months? On top of that when ever I asked her if this is it she says " i don't know" I just can't get a confident answer from her wich tells me she is still confused but things are coming along because she talked to me in a civil manner. 5months ago she would not talk to me at all and if she did it was not worth it, it was a one sided conversation. I love her with all my heart. I am a realistic person and if I get the chance to see her I am going to plead my case that I have made some changes to improve myself and I just want her to understand that.

I just recently broke up with a boyfriend. We dated a year. I cared about him so much and I didn't want to hurt him. I told him I needed some time and space... a break... He kept asking me stuff like: am I still going to go certain places... etc... my answers were, "I don't know" and I responded that way because I didn't want to hurt his feelings. I am a sensative person... sensative with my feelings and sensative with others.
So, because of the way I handled things, I guess your can go two ways. She could be saying what she is saying like how I told my boyfriend... or she could really be confused... And why would you want someone who is confused to be with you?
I say that you don't look forward to the relationship with her. I would keep your options open... and have no contact with her for a while. If you keep up the contact, she will just constantly be on your mind and you won't be able to heal yourself.

Well I agree, I really think she is confused. Trust me she has hurt me enough so holding that back by saying " i don't know" means nothing. I just think she is confused in life and does not know what will make her happy or what it is she wants from life. My thinking is seeing each other will erase any doubt about everything. That way I get my things back that for some odd reason she will not return and I can say hey I tried we hung out I felt nothing or she felt nothing. I do hope that's she does feel something for me and after not seeing each other in 6 months will help with that because she might realize she misses me. If it was 2 months or 1 month that's not that long. I just hope but understand what can happen either way. At least I saw her one last time and gave it a last effort.

I think that might be good for you in that it will give you some kind of closure rather than just walking away which seems to me as an option you don't want to do. It's hard to end relationships. When I broke up with my boyfriend, I felt it just has hurtful to do the breaking up as it is receiving it... so no doubt in my mind that your ex isn't hurting because I'm sure she is. Whatever you do though, don't pressure her as that will just push her away even more if your trying to see if there is still something there.

Thank You. I agree and wish me luck. I think I am going try to make her laugh and enjoy the time with her and see where it goes.

Do you really think she is hurting a little after almost 6 months? I deep in my heart think for some odd reason her keeping my things all this time and we agreeing on hanging out was meant to happen. I believe maybe some time apart might help us. I don't know but I think she would like ot see me again even ifs its one last time. What you think?

You should get out of her mind and head. Your reaching for that false hope, and one more shot, without consideration for the facts. Your only assuming what she thinks. How many one more tries are you entitled to, before you can move beyond this, and get healthy again?
