Question
I started dating a girl about 10 months ago and she just recenty broke up with me. We never had any arguments or problems with each other. I never saw anything wrong in our relationship. I was my self during it and it seemed that she had the best time around me. I would take her to the coolest places like,waterparks and take her outdoors and just do stuff that i would normaly do for fun. She loved the things that i did, but it turns out she started calling me her best friend and eventualy she started not calling me. We started having major communication errors. So the next day we have this big talk and it turns out i was to serious in the relationship and she wasnt. We were so serious that we were not able to hang out with our friends. So she needed her space. I start to get very upset and she didnt seem too, and now we are broken up for good it seems. I just want to knw how to move on.

Hi Ben,
Try to remember that fabulous life that you had before you started dating her.  Remind yourself that she doesn't want to be with the FABULOUS you.... and you deserve to eventually be with someone who wants to be with you.  She told you where she stands and now you have to reconnect with your old friends, do the things that you love to do, and try to not contact her at all because being friends after a breakup is pretty much impossible without a substantial amount of time passing..... Treasure the beautiful moments you shared together and realize that she just wasn't feeling the same way that you were and you deserve to be adored just like you will adore someone.... Warmest Wishes, Erica
