Well guys.. She came over today.
She played with the dogs, we talked about everything. It was a nice closure for me.
Turns out, she went on 5 dates this week. Im not sure if it was with 5 different guys, who knows.
She wants to be friends, come over and see the dogs when she wants and she believes that we will both be able to move past this while still communicating. I do not know if I agree with that.
Basically she is 23 years old, wants to get married and have kids ASAP. I am 21 years old and not finished with college.
We are on two different levels in life right now and along with the other problems we have, things are not going to work right now.
I told her I hope our paths cross again someday when we are on the same track.
She referred to her being "grown up" and telling me that I have "growing up" to do. She is looking for somebody who is grown up and wants to settle down....
Heres the catch: She is looking for a guy like that at the bar?
At the end of it all, Im glad I know where she stands. I am still really torn up about this. I miss her terribly.
Thanks for the advice guys.

No.. I am not talking myself out of it.
I am definitely using our time apart to date and find out if there are qualities in other women that I like more than her.
I need to make sure that if I decide to pursue renewing our relationship that there is nobody better out there for me. I have to make sure she is the one for me.
And really.. she does too. I am not against her dating, the last thing I want is for us to get back together and her question whether or not we are right for eachother.
If we are both sure about it, all the better it will be. If we do find other people, both of us deserve happiness. It is a win-win situation.

Dude, take your own advice, take a break, get some perspective, and focus on yourself for a while. Finish school, get yourself moving forward, and don't look back.
