My ex-girlfriend left me because I have a dead end job and she said she wanted a man with goals and drive. She said she wants a man who can help raise a family.She told me that it's not that she doesn't want to date me and that she doesn't think she will ever find a guy that she likes as much as me. We were hooking up for months after we broke up and recently she just told me that we can't do it anymore because she is not getting over me and I found out she is talking to another guy but not dating because she told him she is not ready. When I told her I am planning on going back to school she said that she was happy for me and one day I could start a family with someone with my new career. She even made jokes that my next girlfriend would be a small girl. I'm working on going to a technical school to improve my career and my life for myself. Is she gone forever or do you think she will be back?

Here's the thing bro, you want her back now, she doesn't want you. You need to do what she says and go better yourself anyway you can, go back to school, join the gym, pick up a constructive hobby. After you do all this you will feel different about things... trust me. More times than not my ex's have come back to me, HOWEVER, it usually has been to long and MY feelings have changed... food for thought. GET BUSY

Better yourself, for yourself not to try and win her back. Chances are, she won't come back and you have to prepare yourself for that fact.

Go no contact with her, and build your new life

Improve yourself for you,not for anyone else.
Move on with your life and be happy becoming a better person.

We can't predict the future, but for now, it's clear that she's moving on with her life, so it's time to move on with yours.
