        X Girlfriend is Back in Contact - CONFUSED what do I do?
       
      
    
    
    
                  
        Ok, so I went 8 months with no contact with a woman who broke up with me after 2 years of dating with no fights biggest problem was a long distance commute of 4 hours that we neither of us could do anything about at the time and her desire to move to a different part of the country.  So she broke my heart last fall and did my best not to contact her. 
I really loved her and wanted the best for her, that's how it was left. 
 
  Then about a month ago I received a call from her asking about a few of her things she wanted to track down before she moved. We ended talking on the phone a few times and then finally coordinated a meeting.  We met and had a nice time, despite nervousness on 
 both our parts, we went on a boat ride and then she asked me if I 
 wanted to do dinner, so we did.  Afterwards we grabbed some icecream and 
 went for a walk.  We just did a lot of catching up and she reminisced 
 about a lot of good times we shared.  And she also talked a lot about the 
 stress in her life, she's sold the house, gave notice to leave her job, 
 and she's had no luck finding an out of state job, and now looking at 
 returning to school.  When we left I gave her her things in a box and I 
 added a 4 leaf clover I found and framed in with her things, because. 
  It was the only way I could think of telling her how I felt, thinking 
 she was going to be moving away.  Right before we left she brought up 
 that her family was going on the same fishing trip they went on last 
 summer and said if I was interested, she was sure they'd love to have 
 me.. Then we hugged good bye and I went home confused. 
 
  A couple days latter I got a text thanking me for the good luck clover and she said it was 
 nice to see me.  A couple days latter she texting me  to thank me for 
 a picture that I left in her car that the boat cruise people took.. A 
 few weeks had gone by and I remembered her saying she'd be home last 
 weekend, so I texted her.  And she text me back saying I was more then 
 welcome to join her family for her dad's annual birthday party cookout, I 
 declined as I had other plans.  But Sunday I drove up to see her and 
 pick up a bike she had wanted to give me. It was an odd day, her sister 
 called me to ask to play in a volleyball tournament with them.  I got 
 there an ended up watching them play for about 5 hours, talking to her in 
 between matches.  She brought up the clover and I told her I gave it 
 to her because sometimes  what I want to say gets lost in words. 
  Earlier they had invited me to join there family for dinner, but during the 
 matches she told me if I was bored I could leave and grab the bike, but 
 it was up to me.  Afterward I went back to her mom and dad's farm and 
 was greeted with a big hug from her mom and her other sisters.  And her 
 nieces and nephews were all over me. We went out to dinner and it felt 
 like old times with the family, like the didn't know things had 
 changed between us, and in some respects it felt the same way with her, we 
 were eating off each others plates and playing with her nephew. And her 
 sisters had thought her little niece how to say me name. The only thing 
 that bothered me was she seemed distant, I felt like she wasn't excited 
 to be around me and she hardly looked me in the eye, it was almost 
 like she felt bad because of the way everyone loved seeing me.  At the end 
 of the night her mom invited me to stay over and I kept telling her I 
 had to get back, but she kept insisting, and I declined as I felt 
 uncomfortable as hell.  When we got back to my car she just told me to drive 
 safe and hugged me good bye in front of everyone and that was it. I felt like I had 
 something to say to her but never got the chance, what exactly I wanted 
 to say I don't know.  Driving home I was sad because I realized just how 
 much I missed being with her family and her. What's your take on the 
 situation?  Is she just nervous to bring things out in the open?  Who 
 welcomes an x-boyfriend on a week long trip with her family?  And why 
 would her family welcome me like that, because it was if they hadn't know 
 we were broken up?  All I know is I miss her and am now more confused 
 then ever. She had to have known I wasn't driving all the way up there 
 to just pick up a bike.  Do you think she still has feeling for me?  Do 
 you think she was warming up to me and I pushed her away again by 
 showing her I cared.  Something just doesn't seem right.  What do I do now? 
  Wait for her to call?
