Anyway, I'm 20, my girlfriend (ex) is 18. We dated for about nine and a half months. I'm a junior in college, she is a freshman. She dumped me on Sunday, because of the following reasons; that I didn't have a job, that I didn't take her out for dates (she paid a lot because I didn't have a job, and she always wanted to go out), and because I just went along with things she said. Obviously, since I'm a guy, I did all the stupid things (texting her, calling her, while she's telling me to leave her alone). She also said that I need to get my life in order. She said she wanted to see me Wednesday, and stupid me thought she wanted to try and work it out - turns out she just wanted Wednesday in order to get closure. She told me to move on and get on with my life, because any time she looks at me and thinks about the nine months she "wasted" on me. At the end of the night, she kissed me a few times, hugged me, and walked away.
Fast forward to yesterday, I've still been texting her a little, trying to get her back - and she flips out. She sends me like two paragraphs of just yelling at me. I ignore her then, and during the day she says "I want my necklace back" twice, because she left it at my house. Later that night, she texted me saying I'm sorry for being so mean, it was the only way to get through to you. She then says how she feels like the only way we can see "if we're right for each other" is to get out there and see what else there is. She said she wants to get back to how she WAS (taking pictures, drawing, etc, then "regroup"). So I say I don't know if I'll have time to give her the necklace this weekend (lie), and she says "umm how about Monday the 18th"? So I say yeah, and I also ask her out for Friday the 22nd (a day before 10 months), and she says yes. Anyway, today she says that her "hatred" for me has gone down from about 75% to around 45%.
So that brings us up to the present! She told me what my main flaws were (no job, no "direction") and I'm applying for jobs, and an internship). My current situation is that at 5:55, she said "back to work. bye", and I didn't answer. All or most of my friends are saying just forget about her. I want someone that will give me some kind of hope.. So, a few questions!
1. Is it possible to ask her out on Friday the 22nd? I don't like just being her "friend"
2. Should I text her anything back after the "back to work. bye" text?
3. If I want to get her back to being my girlfriend on the 22nd, what do I need to do?
Someone help, thanks.
