Well just to let you all know it dosent work very well being friends after a very serious relationship. she asked me back and i reluctantly Declined. we havent talked for about a week and a half now. i think im taking it okay except every time i see a ford tempo (her type of car) a terriable feeling hits me in the gut

trien to get her out of my head.. im in school again so it helps and im going up to canada clubbin this friday(tommorow) ive already met a bounch of girls but i still feel like Crapola, especially when i see someting that reminds me of her (like this damn candle she gave to me next to my computer!)

NO, NO, NO! Do not go out with her even as friends!! Not for at least several years! From what you have already mentioned, you do not need to be with her as you had valid reasons. It sounds like you need to get the things she gave you, put them in a box and hide it in the attic of the garage. (much harder to get to should you feel the need) Keep yourself busy and consider yourself lucky that things haven't gotten worse. Please take it SLOW with her. If you jump right back in the water now and you'll be right back where you were, hating every minute of it. No one said breaking up with someone you've been with that long would be easy. Take it day by day and you'd be suprised how easy (relatively) it is. Please MOVE ON!
