So as a friend if you care for me please respect my wishes and let me be.

It's been just over 6 years since this post was written and i want to thank you all for your input and advice at the time.
Looking back on this - i was young and blinded by my first experience of 'love' or lust, as i know it was now. It's human nature to want what you can't have and i couldn't have her that's why i was yearning for her.
I'm older and wiser and wanted to thank you all for your help then.
Best regards,
Baffled

You don't deserve the heartbreak and if you continue to think negatively then all you will bring to your life is negativity so come on... THINK POSITIVE!!! I am a great believer and ambassador for positive thinking and I'm proof that it works too. She is just the first person you've really fallen for, doesn't mean you won't fall for someone seriously again. When one door closes another one opens so close the door on this relationship once and for all and move on! You WILL find love again, I guarantee it!
Good luck on this, your new beginning...
Eve

Baffledd is verified as being by the original poster of the questionits been 7months since we were together and we had a little fall out which inturn lead to us not speaking for 7months. in that long period of time i was yearning for her. love does make us blind but its the first time ive experienced these feelings, so thats why im soo confused.
i probably deserved this heartbreak, i mean its just karma.

Do it, baffledd: it's for the best. It doesn't seem so now, but, it will. When you see clearly again, you will see to what great extent it's for the best.
You won't be bothering her, and you have a new beginning.

She is telling you "tactfully" that she doesn't want to be romantically involved with you any more. If you continue to contact her after this then you're only making a nuisance of yourself to her and she'll lose all respect for you. Text her back and say "Yes, I agree, we were never meant to be and I too have moved on. Good luck for the future." LEAVE IT AT THAT and get on with your life, that way you can hold your head up.

I understand your feeling confused. Love makes us blind, or at the very least gives us blurred vision. But, she was very clear: she doesn't want you in her life. Accept it, and leave.

Keep well away and let her live her life. You are not being fair if you pester her after this.
take care

I agree, I think you should just back off and leave her alone. There must have been a reason she's your EX. She was very kind here and said it as nicely as she could. You never know, in a few years if you have both grown up and learned to appreciate what you have maybe fate will throw you back together. Until then just cool off and move on. Maybe not onto somebody else but concentrate on your life at the minute.

Respect her wishes and back off she doesnt want you anymore in the romantic sense she just wants to be free and if you want her to be happy then leave her alone its harsh but she said it in the nicest way she could
