She says this might make us stronger, she still wants to text and stuff because in truth we're best friends now too. I dunno is this a good idea though, what is my best way to play this, all i want is her back

I had been going with a guy for 8 months, and when I broke up with him, I immdeiately hopped into another relationship.
I've now been with my boyfriend for a year and two months, but I feel like I didn't get to experience being single, and living life without someone there.
I honestly regret it, and constantly feel a need to be away from him now just because I feel so caged and upset with myself.
I too am best friends with my current boyfriend, and love him with my whole heart.
I think she just wants to be alone for a bit. Trust that things will be okay. If you were meant to be then she'll come back.
It's the right thing to do to give her some space. ^_^ I think you're very brave for it.

ok,,, this happened to me too and i took the wrong approach at first... i reckon you say ok and accept it.. i know it hurts but she wants to have control over you by texting and stuff thats not a break.. leave it be.. do not contact her for a few weeks she'll soon see that she can't control you and make you feel like its your fault.. dont worry she'll come crawling back when she sees what a great person she has thrown away... good luck hun!!
