My ex was stressed out w/ work and took it out on me for the past 2 weeks, and yesterday she told me that she wanted us to go our separate ways out of the blue. Her reason? She's still unsure about what she wants in a relationship, and she needs time to think about it (a.k.a someone else gives her the tingles)

Prior to that, there was no argument, no fight. We were probably the happiest couple around, next thing I know, she just wanted to end it abruptly.

BUT no reason to fight it, so I'm moving on.

I don't know if I went beta about it, but I decided to talk to my friend about it, and she's been very supportive & even she said to let me know whenever I needed to talk over a drink. She also knew the situation (ex taking out her stress on me) prior to this conversation too.

Can I turn her from an emotional tampon to a plate? or is it too late since I told her about my situation with my ex?

Background: I know My friend is talking to someone, but it's nothing serious - they've only gone on one date and the next one isn't probably until 2-3 weeks from now lols. But this guy does give her the tingles from the way she talked about him.
