the ex??

hey everyone...
this is mainly for the girls to answer, but hey, i would like to hear advice from anyone ;)

i am 19. i broke up with my girlsfriend about 3 years ago. i know its crazy, but i still love her. when we were going out it was wiered because we felt wiered talking and stuff if we were not at a party or something. so therefore we didnt even see each other much by ourselves. dont get me wrong, we got along very well as B/f and G/F however we were both too friget. our friendship is also still very good. i know lots of people say this but i do know that we are both exactly the same as each other. she didnt give me a reason for breaking up, but i know its because it was just wiered. the thing is, now i am very different with talking to girls and i have had a lot of time thinking about what i should have been like. i KNOW that it will work if we tryed again. now we are both out of high school and living in the same place about 10 mins away from each other. two different unis therefore i dont see or hear from her much. i know that she is single and will pick up at parties occasionaly. so i want to try again with her b4 it is too late. i know i should try getting over her, but seriously i have and still am trying. i want to give it one last shot tho. the problem is, i dont want to ask her in a way of making her feel awkward and therefore restricting me to feel that i shouldnt talk to her in a while. u see, i feel bad now if i ring her up for a chat, and that she feels wiered about it too. she wont show it, and she loves a chat, but i can read her like a book. how can i ask her for another try for a relationship in the best way possible b4 it is too late. she most possibly has an idea that i like her. i never get a chance to talk alone with her, and when i have it has been really bad. any help i would love!

thanx heaps everyone

If your friendship is very good, like you say, why can't you ask her out ? Ask her out for a coffee or something. Don't think ask her for come back just like that. although i've a doubt: Why do you feel weird to talk with or vice-versa ? Why do you feel weird when you were together ?

yeah just feel wierd like i think she knows i still have feeling for her. thereofore it stops me from doing things such as asking to have a coffee of something because i feel that she might be uncomfortable...i wanna ask to see a movie or something with her, but im always worried about what she will think
thanx for replying too ;)

You're worried because what she might think if you ask her out for a movie or a coffee? Do you know that song "Don't worry be happy". It's impossible to know what's going on on a girl/woman's mind, that's a science fact :). Now more serious, don't think what she might think, just ask. In love issues, if you think too much you may lose too much.

bluestrattos, thank you for your advice..that is what i needed to hear :) i will see if i can organise something.. its better to try than to regret trying later on hey!?! thanx again

You're welcome and Good Luck ;)

My girlffriend broke it off with me because we werent comfortable with each other but we stayed friends and we got more comfortable between us. It was like we were still dating. but we ended up getting back together after a couple of months of just getting to know each other.
