Icebeam,

Let it go. This relationship is toxic and is not good for either of you. It may be hard, but move on with your life. Hang with your friends, meet new people etc. Just let it go.

Long distance relationship??!?!

Why don't you find someone locally who you can do the small things for and they won't be such a burden (3 hour drive).
Because sometimes you just know the person is the one

I was just not mature enough.

It sounds to me like you only want this girl when she doesn't want you. If she changed her mind and declared true love and showered you with affection I bet you'd go right back to doing the same crap you did before. Let this girl go find someone who treats her well and wants to be with her. If you've really changed then your next relationship will be a lot better.

you need to focus on other things.. get your mind off of her..
If you could go an entire MONTH without contacting her, I guarantee you she will contact you and want to know whats going on with you..... I'm NOT saying play hard to get, because once she contacts you.. its game on but if you continue to chase her, she will keep running away..

A couple that breaks up 15+ times just sounds like it's not "meant to be." At some point you run out of chances and use this as a learning experience. If she contacts you and says she wants to give you another chance, you could give it a try.

I've been in a long term relationship in which I didn't treat her as well as I felt I should have. I tried to get back together with her but she had already moved on. I wasn't mature enough to be in a relationship but it wasn't fair for me to keep her waiting. A little over a year later I'm in my current long term relationship with a woman who's even better. I lived, learned and now I'm in a better place.

Yea, thanks for all your thoughts guys, Im going to move on with my life and just text her once a week like she asked. If she does not want to come back on her own free will then why do I want her back.

Right. The more things change, the more they stay the same. People inherently don't change.

Why didn't you work on those "changes" she asked the first FIFTEEN TIMES she requested it?

I would have given you TWICE at most and left you alone after.

It seems like she still cares about you, but you really need to leave her alone until she's ready to deal with you again.

Why she would want to is beyond me. She needs to start "fresh" and leave the "drama" (YOU) behind.
