My ex, of 4 years, broke up with me in September. I'm 27 and she's 26.
She said because she doesn’t love me romantically anymore, and loves
Me as more of a brother. She wanted me to change my wardrobe, and
Further my career, though I did finish college and I have a great job.
We didn't talk for a month, then after a month we began seeing each
Again almost 6 or 7 days a week, but platonically. I was thinking she
Would give me another chance. 5 week ago, after a 6 month platonic
Relationship, she told me that she went on a date with some guy a few
Times, and she really likes him, and we need to stop seeing each other
For a while. I didn't talk to her for a week, then I called her. When
We spoke I made sure I sounded cheerful, and I told her that I changed
My wardrobe to the way she liked, and I'm trying to further my career.
When I told her that, she told me that she knew she needed to give me
Space to grow. Also, that she's been trying to get me to change for a
While, and that I finally did it "at the end."
3 weeks later I spoke to her in person, and she told me she is seeing
Someone else. When I asked her if she's seeing or dating this guy, she
Could not give me the answer. I told her her that I learned my
Mistakes, and if she is dating I will give her space and contact her
In a few months, and she said "thank you". She told me she misses me,
And how well we got along. And that maybe in a year or 5 years, if
We're both single, that she'll want to try dating me again.
What does it mean? What can I do to win her back?
