I just wanna call and say 'Hi, How are you?' but can't.It's doing my head in! Reply to this Question

For the 1st time i'll agree with Frank B Kermit though it's not always the case.I went through a similar experience and we are back together though i know she wouldn't have gone crazy if i started seeing sum1 else but i know that in such circumstances there's still hope.Don't despair.Think about her less and YES go out with other women for now.
Good luck.

 Some times people do need space, you sound like this isn't the first time she has asked for it?
Wait til she gets in touch, (try not to go nuts!)
and then say to her you're not prepared to have any more breaks in your relationship and if she doesn't want the same thing then I would suggest you call it a day with her, at the end of the day you don't live together so it's not like you live in each others pockets.
You need to want the same thing for you 2 to work out.
good luck!

 The best way to cope is to START SEEING OTHER WOMEN.
When a partner asks for space, it is there way of saying:
"Find someone else, and dump me, because I haven't the heart to dump you first"
Being with someone they love is NOT a burden. It helps them through the tough times. Wanting to get away from that is just a Red Flag.
