    Girlfriend dumped me and confused
    Hello I was recently dumped and my girlfriend and I were together for a year and 10 months. The relationship was great at times but also horrible at times. We've had fights in the past where we needed to give each other space and then we would just get back together. So thereforee we've had a rocky journey. We recently had a big argument that involved us being physical. And she said she forgave me for the fight but she really didn't. Mind you she blames me for the majority of the fight when I believe it was a 2 way street and she has equal amount of blame. Also people have been buddin into our relationship for quiet a while and it had affected us negatively. And recently she has been really busy and unable to take a few minutes for a phone call or even get to hang out with me. I expressed myself to her and she decided we needed a break. While the break started then she thought of that fight we had and she decided she wanted to work on herself and she reall couldn't if she was in a relationship. She wante to better herself an the relationship showed her things.

    But it's been a week since we've been broken up and she calls me and I know I shouldve done the NC rule but I did talk to her via phone and text. And its generally her calling me or texting me. And yesterday she gave me hope that she still saw the future with me and this is the best for us. And she told me she does love me and that she wouldn't get into another relationship because she wanted to be alone and improving herself. And I told her I needed my space and then she texted me this morning telling me she wanted a hug and sigh I don't know what to do. I also told her I couldn't be her friend because the only way I could be part of her life would be as a boyfriend.

    This hope it killing me and like she doesn't want to easily go back into the relationship like the past and I need to kind of working my healing and live my life but I'm confused as to what to do

    Massive alarm bells went off when I read that your last fight turned physical.

    You need to stop contacting her, don't pick up her calls or answer her texts. You two have broken up and gotten back together a few times in the past, and now you hit each other? THIS IS NOT A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP

    She is looking out for herself by getting out of it, and rightley so. You should do the same.

    Argument that turns physical?
    That's ONE MAJOR RED FLAG!
    You should go complete onehundred percent NC and don't look back.

    She is only trying to string you along, TRUST ME, I've been there. It's a horrible place if you let her do that, you are just going to hurt yourself. You need to start NC ASAP and get over her as fast as possible. This relationship is unhealthy, get out of it.

    Talking to her will add to the confusion, give you false hope and make you over-analyze every little detail. That is very unhealthy behavior which will only prolong your pain and suffering. What you do is follow the no contact rules: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/relati...qs-332732.html

    This relationship has been extremely toxic. You're both right that you need to work on yourselves first before worrying about a relationship with one another. Keep your distance from each other until you have both completely healed from this experience.

    There's no point getting back together and having things blown up again. Maybe one day (way down the line) when both of you have worked out your personal issues you can consider a possible relationship again. But until then, focus on yourself.

    You don't need her. Don't talk to her. Whether you wanted her back or not, the right course of action would be to not talk to her.

    It ain't easy but it's something you got to do. She is stringing you along, I'm ready to bet on that. Trust me, a real man leaves without calling.

    Sigh I mean I do want to fix things for this relationship to move toward but I guess it was too late. Sigh it's so confusing and hard this moment.

    There is nothing to fix, except yourself. Learn from your mistakes and be happy you get out of this relationship a better person. It's her loss and your gain.
