So my girlfriend dumped me 1 month ago after me making a big mistake (not cheating)ago and since then we've met twice. in the last one which was yesterday I told her i really like her and want us to be together again.. What she said was that she is happy to hear that and she likes me too but she was turned off a lot by the break up and she needs time (just a few days) to think if she wants to be in a relationship generally (but said its ok to keep in touch)...
So what should I do? Should i initiate the no contact until she decides or continue being in touch with her? What do you think are the chances?

What should you do? Give her time of course. Isn't that what she asked for?

Don't play games (like no contact), don't beg, just carry on as normal and she will let you know if you are back in...or not.

Think and act 0.1% and eventually, it might be better than expected.

Give her time.

She can let you know when/if she is ready.


She just might find that your "big mistake" is too big to deal with and move on....

She says that the mistake is not the main issue..
She just doent know if she wants to be in a relationship in general..
She also said she likes me a lot. do you think i stand a chance?

Why does it matter what we think? We can't predict the future. Only she knows if you stand a chance, and maybe she hasn't even made up her mind yet.

You need to relax and let things take their course. Are you usually very impatient and require instant gratification and definitive black-and-white answers?

The last time a girl told me she needed time was in 1987 LOL.

I'm no longer waiting for her having moved on about 25 years ago.

If I saw her today I would thank her. My life took a totally different turn after we broke up and today I'm the most fortunate man on earth.
