Don't push her for an answer because you'll definitely get an answer you aren't going to like. What you should have done is said "yeah I think taking a break is a good idea".Back off and then let her come to you.

You need to end it.
[–]The_Tomb_is_Empty 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Why do you feel that way? Please give some insight, instead of just a statement like that with zero context.
And how do I know she already hasn't ended it, but used "go on a break" to make it sound nicer?
[–]No-Reporter3692 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
You need to end it. Agreed. Why? Because everyone deserves to be with someone who undoubtedly wants to be there and is excited about the idea of being your woman. She isn’t that so don’t waste your precious time on her.
[–]The_Tomb_is_Empty 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Again - how do I know it isn't already ended and she just wants to be friends?
You're not listening.
[–]No-Reporter3692 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
What are you talking about? It doesn’t matter whether she ended it or not. Do you not have agency? Do you not have control of your life? You do. So it doesn’t matter what she feels, says or does. The point is for YOU to be done here and for YOU to move on. You don’t need her to say anything or do anything to make that decision. Sheesh! Get a grip.

YOU HAVE to end it. she is telling you, she was done with you before you asked her out, for whatever reason she also doesnt want sex nor be touched. you can find something you like, that likes you and that is ready for being with you and wants to. dont try to save your current three months relationship with a woman is obviously not into you.

You displayed too much nice guy behavior and she got bored of you. She told you she moved on before you asked her out. OUCH.
A break is a nice way of saying it's over and it leaves the door open for her to come back in the future which is what a lot of girls like doing these days. They don't want commitment or definitive endings. She doesn't want to hurt you by saying it's over but it is essentially over.
Just stop holding on to hope that you can talk her out of it or confess enough love for her to change her mind. You can't. She doesn't feel the same way for you that you do for her. You have to undo all the nice guy behavior that bored her away from you. You do that by leaving her alone long enough that she forgets about that and misses you.
Your best bet to get her back is to pull back twice as hard as she is. Cut off contact. Don't talk to her, text, snap, Facebook, anything.
CUT HER OFF
Focus on yourself. Get your mind right. Workout. Find something new to focus on and forget about her.
Like I've been telling a lot of you guys lately because it is true if you cut off contact with these women they will wander back in the future if you leave them alone. But you can't hold out hope for that either. You need to be changed when she comes back.
For now she is gone. Sorry man. Focus on you and get over her.
"She told you she moved on before you asked her out. OUCH."
Do you think she was manipulating me?

she told you exactly what she did man, i think it was ok for her to do so and for ending it when she thought it didnt work.
[–]The_Tomb_is_Empty 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
A few questions I have -
It doesn't read to you as her unintentionally leading me on/playing with my heart, the fact she said yes to me back in October, even though she wasn't sure exactly how she felt?
"it leaves the door open for her to come back in the future"
What do you mean by this? Come back how?
"You do that by leaving her alone long enough that she forgets about that and misses you."
How could she miss me romantically if she isn't into me anymore? Do you feel going no-contact mode for a bit can make her curious about me in a romantic way again?

Bro you need to end it n move on stop questioning its not going to work out your just going to waste your energy worrying about why it didn't work out trust me I had the same shit happen to me last year
[–]Minute-Lie-2287 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago* (2 children) | Copy Link
Congratulations! You pulled off the impossible task! You were friend zone and got out of it!!!!
And you got the usual ending...short lived, she was never thrilled, probably only did it in the first place to feel like she had someone safe for a while.
Now move on and never, never never do that nice guy shit again to get yourself in the position you started off in if you are interested in a girl. This will be doubly hard for you since it actually got rewarded but I promise you it's 1/1000 times this happens. Do you want a 1/1000 chance with the next crush?....don't do it, just don't do it.
Oh and don't do it!
One last thing don't pull that nice guy shit again!
And you're on the spectrum, some of the resources I post here might help you in the future. I think a lot of people don't realize just because you may not have some of these social abilities naturally doesn't mean you can't learn them...but it's like learning to play guitar....takes a ton of practice before you really get to play, in the meantime youll at least make more notes.

Here's the thing dude -
She was going through a lot of shit. Fighting with her mom. Saying her dad was a dead beat. Issues at work and staying up with late shifts.
What else was I supposed to do?.....Just be like "Oh, that sucks."....?
I didn't try to solve her problems for her. Just listen and encourage her.

That's pretty much just normal life for most people , hate to tell you.
It's alright to be supportive but not without making your intentions clear. She needs to know you aren't a friend and if that's what she wants but you don't then she gets dropped.
You can't just give her the free therapy all the time with no reward. This one in particular you say you were friends for about a year first....she should have been dropped well before that if it wasn't your intention to just be friends. Hell at number 4. She actually told you herself, too nice sometimes, yes, that means she was hoping you'd do what I talk about next when she brought you problems.
This is kind of where you play a little classical conditioning, you don't give rewards for nothing.
She goes on a date, ok she can call and cry about some shit.
She calls to cry about some shit or text bc she's bored and wants to be entertained but just turned down spending time with you....then yes, oh man I'm sorry, I wish I could talk right now but I have to go do blank. Or she gets left on read.
Sounds shitty but you don't owe a girl for merely associating with you.

Your turn is over.

Break up
[–]breakboyzz 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Let her go bro. If she’s asking for a break she broke up a long time ago. The sooner you understand how women operate, the easier it is to stomach this shit. Stop communicating with her immediately.
When girls say they want a break, it’s because they already found someone else who is interested in her and wants to pursue that. The best thing you can do at this point is to back off, play it cool. If y’all are still texting, I would text her something like this “I’m not gonna chase if you’re not interested.”
End of conversation. For real. Even if she replies, don’t respond. Nothing gets a girl more dry than a man who can’t walk away from her. If you continue to pursue her, you will never have a chance ever again. Women don’t like guys who are afraid of walking away.
Moral of this situation is to walk away, and make yourself better by working out, doing fun shit, getting a haircut, etc.
Don’t make yourself better for her, make yourself better for you. Be your own leader and eventually other women will follow.
I can’t stress enough that she broke up with you in her mind a while ago and is pursuing other men right now. I know it hurts, but the sooner you realize this is how most women operate, the sooner you will make the “walk away” muscle stronger.
If you want more information about what is at ply here, dm me and I’ll help you understand why this happens and how to overcome it in the future.

You need to stop everything with her. Look at her, smile and take your leave. From now, she is nothing for you anymore. The hardest part is to kill every feeling that left. You do not want anything more with her, nothing. Respect yourself.
Be strong man.

Let her have it. Use the art of the deal and walk away from the table and start looking for the next one. She may or may not come back but you should NOT wait for her or maintain any regular relationship with her u less she is serious about getting back together.
You should be aware that most likely she wants to try dating and hooking up with other guys that she most likely already knows and has been planning on.
I say drop her and move on to someone who is worth your time
