I was dating a girl for almost 3 years when we decided to call it quits. That was 4 months ago and it was a very stressfull point in both of our lives (I was finishing college and she was entering her senior year). Since then I've been trying to fix things, and recently I've been working on myself and have really learned a lot that wouldn't have been possible without our breakup (espescially in my religious life). I feel like I found on my own what she's been wanting me to find all along... and that was a more open relationship with God. She doesn't call or text me anymore unless I make the initial contact (which really confuses me). However, we hung out the other night and she had a great time! I really just kept it about us having fun and steered away from the subject of our relationship if it came up. But, I don't remember the last time I'd seen her have so much fun. She kept bringing up fun stories about our past, even intimate stories. Would she bring those things up if she wanted to get over me? At the end of the night I asked her why she decided to come and she teared up a bit and said "I missed my best friend". It's been about a week since then and there's been no contact. She is studying abroad in 3 months and has her sister's wedding in about 2 weeks so her life is really stressed right now. I want to be there for her, and continue to build a new relationship (at least starting as friends). Question is, do I make the effort to initiate conversation again? Or wait until she contacts me?
