I've just got out of a 3 year relationship with my first proper girlfriend. We had frequently had problems due to our naivety and inexperience but loved each other deeply and spent every moment we could together. I definitely took the relationship for granted and the last couple of months weren't great between us.
We broke up a month ago and I have spent a lot of that time texting her, calling her, trying to persuade her to come back. Exactly what I shouldn't have been doing! But I had never experienced this before and just reacted.
She is now 'with' some guy she works with, he seems like a nice guy and she says she really likes him but that neither of them want a relationship. There are a number of reasons why I don't think it will last, but he also has the opportunity to be new and exciting.
I now have enough balance and a clear enough head to resist contacting her and to take a more levelled approach to getting her back. She's told me she still loves me and that she misses me, but she also has this guy. Is it too late?
I'm being much stronger, leaving her alone, not being the pathetic mess I was 4 weeks ago. But have I already driven her into his arms?
