Well it happened, she insisted we break up because she believes were not on the same page, she says she’s uncertain about making her defining decision, I know she’s right about that. I convinced her that maybe taking a break from our relationship would be best, she agreed, but she says while and after the break if it doesn't work out she wants to still be friends. I believe the true issue is if I am worthy of her trust because shes been burned before so I asked her to call me tonight. On a side note another girl saw me in the gym today right after. I have no interest in her but she wants to be gym buddies, I had a lot of fun were going to do this for the rest of the summer. The sadness is starting to hit me as of now though ,I have been in a nonchalant mood all day it’s usually always my mood. I've never cried over a girl before but..... I got pretty emotionally attached. (I feel like a weak sack of crap.) My other posts lead up to this but they don't matter I was just venting this is certain.

Assume that the relationship is over and move on as soon as you can. Don't hold out hope that she will change her mind - but, on the slender chance she may, don't make any quick decisions about whether to take her back.leave her be so that she can get over her issues, and ask her for space so that you can move onto someone else that is able to be in a relationship with you.

Yeah, you can't just be friends.

Delete, delete, delete.

If she contacts you then you won't know who it is.

Being with her was too difficult, Jep.

It hurts, but you can get through it. Just stay busy and be honest with yourself.

Yea I called her last night to re assure , she says "I don't think were compatible as a couple asking me to change or you is to hard" but she was trying so hard to be nice about it and I respect her decision in the end. She wants to do the whole friends thing I told her I'm angry and confused right now, shes being very persistent on keeping me idk why shes getting emotional about losing me there but not as a partner. She says call me later even if it takes months and keeps saying "sorry". I'm not sure if I can do it just the thought of her with someone else burns me.

If it hurts you too much, you have the right to tell her you don't want to be friends.

Sometimes people want to "stay friends" because it helps their ego and keeps them from feeling like the bad guy for initiating the breakup.

But you don't have to be friends. I would just go "no contact."

I wouldn't be friends with her OP. I think this helping her ego thing quoted above is what she's trying to do so she isn't the bad guy... to make herself feel better. If you stay friend, it will just make getting over her harder. She broke up with you, now you need to do what's best for yourself and to help yourself get over her and if that means walking away and not looking back, do that. Good luck.

"Still be friends".

That's the relationship kiss of death.

She insists on still being friends because she's very young, this was her first relationship, and she hasn't had enough experience in relationships to know that that's a bad idea (thinking back to your first post about this, you were her first kiss, even). You can politely say no.
