Say for instance she decides to move on, do you think it would be ok to stay in touch with her? The reason being is that I care for her and want to be a friend who she can lean when ever she's down. I just don't want her to get hurt. I know I sound still too attached to her...old habits are hard to change.
No. Not that's it WRONG to stay in touch with her, but it won't help you AT ALL get over her. Instead, it'll keep her vision and your hopes alive which is contradictory to you being able to move on. You won't be able to move on and you'll constantly see her and be thinking, "Oh she's so nice. I wish she was still mine. She smiled at me today. Maybe she's missing me? She looked good today." etc. etc. It's really not easy to get over someone if you see them all the time. And to make it worse, she'll probably SAY she wants to remain friends because she thinks that'll be the 'nice' thing to do.
