writes:I had a relationship with a girl right after summer ended. We had to go our own ways, but we still remained together, so it turned into a long-distance relationship. After a couple weeks, she said that long-distance relationships didn't work, so she broke up with me. I cut off all contact with her (except phone, because we IM'd most of the time). On her birthday a couple weeks later, she called me and said she couldn't get over me. She asked if we could get together again -until she got over me-.I truly miss her, but what she said hurt me. She was asking as if we would break up again. Before I could answer, she said "nevermind" and hung up.I didn't say anything to her yet, and I need some advice on what to do! Thanks in advance.

 I wouldn't say anything to her. She probably said, "Nevermind," and hung up because when the words came out of her mouth, she realized how hurtful and ridiculous her request was.
That happens. Something sounds great in our heads, and when we voice them, we realize what an idiot we're being. ;-)
Your best bet is to move on. Long distance relationships can be rewarding, with work and frankly, they aren't always. Relationships with people local toyou are, in my experience, generally superior.
You are young with a world of possibility in front of you. I suggest you embrace the new school year and all of the exciting potential it holds.
Breaking up hurts. And then you get over them and are a better person. You'll be just fine (better than fine) and sooner than you think.
Good luck.
