    Being kept on a string?
    Me and my ex finally broke up about a month ago. Look at previous posts for details. She says she still loves me and always will, but she doesn't want to be with me. It is obvious she doesn't want to be with me because of her actions. Basically, I feel like if she wanted to be, she would be. Why won't she burn the bridge? I feel like she is giving me false hope by telling me that we need to see our faults, and that we need time to think about things. I haven't seen her in over a month, and I think she is seeing someone else because of the way she just broke it off, but she won't admit to it. I feel like she is just playing games because anytime I text her she always replies. To me if she wanted it to be over I just wouldn't hear from her anymore. Why do people play these games? What is the point? She says she doesn't want to hurt my anymore by dragging this out, yet that is exactly what she is doing.:confused:

    She is playing games, but it takes two to tango. Don't play her game, and it ain't a problem anymore man. Cut that string, and get on with your life!

    Good luck!

    I sort of thought that she was. I just don't understand why, and I really don't understand why I continue to hold on like I am. This is very unlike me.

    Perhaps playing games is the wrong choice of words. I would say she is just doing what you allow her to do...

    The reason why you hold on to this is because you still like her. You miss her. You would love to have a second chance. You KNOW you won't have one, but you still WANT one.

    But I read in your post that you are sending messages and she's replying. Stop doing that. If you were only being reactive to her, it would still be bad, but it would be her fault. But you are insistently going after her. And this is all your fault.

    Listen to your brain and forget about your heart. Your heart is the dumbest advisor in these situations.

    Still don't know how to let go? Disappear from her life, and leave her alone, and don't have any contact with her whatsoever. That's your solution!
