Hi, my girlfriend and i have been dating for almost two whole years i am seventeen and she is sixteen. recently she told me that she did think she wanted to date anymore and needed to find herself. She states hat she doesnt want to look back at her high school life knowing that she didnt have a large social single life. I acknowledged her request and left her alone, i have not been texting her and i have not tried talking to her knowing the counter-intuitive method. this has worked very well but i do WANT her back. Do i text her if i want her back. If not, when do i talk to her and how long should i wait before she moves on. Please help and any suggestions will help me greatly, thank you very much kind reader

Well people do change overtime. It's just the way life is. She's growing into becoming a young mature woman. She's curious about the world and she knows she has all these opportunities in life (college, traveling, working, etc). And from what you said she wants to experience other things. I'm sorry to say and I could be wrong on this but I think she wants to see other people and she'll probably tell you the samething. But again I could be wrong. I think you're a good guy for giving her space and respecting her wishes. I think you should call her (not text) and just talk to her and ask her how she has been doing just to catch up on things. I don't know if you guys are completely broken up or not or for how long but if you guys are don't be suprised if she's talking to another guy. I know it sucks but life can be cruel sometimes. So my advice is to call and talk to her as a friend and see how she's been doing. If you want her back then you tell her when you think the time is right. But don't text it. Let it come from your voice. Good luck buddy.

She has spoken, and her words were that she wants to be single and have a large social life over a boyfriend. You're not going to get her back, and the best thing you can do now is move on. She has already moved on, since she was willing to dump you for her social life instead. Move on.
