OK this is it I was with some one for 5 years we had problems like everyone else but then I had familly issues that I held in I got mad about it and was not a nice person to be around so she asked if we could take a break I said OK well its been 2 months and she says she wants to be friends first then go from the basically take things day to day OK I can sort of understand what I want to know is why..
We have lived toghther for 4 yrs and I left cause its what she wanted but know I send her flowers right her poems that sort of stuff and I told her how I feel I know she wants to make it work but I think I need to show her trust and honesty all over again but she is busy all the time know... and I am having a horrible time trying to deal with my stuff but her kid has called me dad for years and that's the hardest part that I can't see them I just want some advice on what I should be doing and how to communicate as a friend but also as more if you can understand that cause I don't.. all I know is there's nothing I wouldn't do for them and the same for me she said but any ways any help would be great

Well, this isn't something that can just happen overnight and I really wish it could. Try showing, and proving (actions speak louder than words) that you can be trusted, are available and reliable once again. Take it slowly, all good things take time. Good luck to you:)
