What does "I miss you but I need space" mean?

[Smila]

Dude, she has dumped your behind.....

Painful but true....

Closure is something we give ourselves as we work through the process of getting over a relationship. When you get to the point of accepting that it's over and can move on, that's closure.

As for her thought processes - for her, lack of finances or financial glitches are a dealbeaker. In short, she values money more highly than personal attributes.

Why would she continue to talk with you? This girl needs two things in a man 1:money and 2: a personality she enjoys. If you get yourself back to where you used to be financially, you will tick both boxes and be acceptable to her again. In short, she's hoping you will get yourself back into a spot where you can deliver both money and companionship.

So she is still hoping that I get back to where I was financially because she does enjoy the other attributes I have but not enough to outweigh her highest priority which is money. That does make a lot of sense the more I think about her. Anytime we were really good and she was happy and sweet was when I was doing the best. Anytime there was a fissure in my finances she became a little cold and reserved.

My advice would be to go on with your life.. In my view, if you break up once, it doesn't work anymore. You say to each other that you want to changes something about you, character, quality, etc., it works for three months and then its the same as it was. And how old are you? And is she? Please, go out, meet nice people, meet nice other girls, and see that we are with sooo many....
When I was a teenage, i thought that it was the end of the world when we broke up, two years later. Of course, i loved him so much.. But don't want a fairy tale that doesn't exist. I think its good to know/learn, and especially feel how to letting go. Everything comes to an end.. In the end.

PS i'm here to improve my vocabulary and to speak better English then i do now.. so dont be to strict

Nailed it.

Now, do you want a gold digger like this in your life?

Only off your thread title it means I am having second thoughts about you and I might want out of this relationship, I want to take a break and see if I am happier without you in my life or not, if I am the space will become a break up if not then you stay together, I guess.
