Break up
Relationship Stress / by Rainbow219

...See more My gf left me 3 months ago over some minor issues. We were together 17 years and have 3 children. We did not talk for a while, only about the kids, but now we get on great. Sometimes she's flirty and sometimes not. She knows I want to have another chance and I have sorted out the issues in question via a therapist but she has not as yet said its a definite NO. I did text her apologising for everything and that I want to make it work which is why I got help. Should I just bide my time and hope she sees the new me? I don't want to keep pressuring her as I don't want to push her back.

...See more My gf left me 3 months ago citing controlling behaviour on my part. We were together for 17 years and have 3 children together. I have since been attending counselling and I feel a changed person and hopefully she can see this. She always asks how my sessions have gone. We are getting on very well now, sometimes flirty and sometimes she goes cold. I have asked her for a chance to try again on 3 occasions and she knows I want her back. She has not said yes or no but she is always very civil and happy around me now. Is this normal for her? I get the odd mixed signal sometimes. I am scared of asking her outright at the moment as to where her head is at as I don't want to push her away altogether. She never talks about the relationship at all. I have taken full responsibility and apologised for everything. Does this sound like I may get a chance to try again or does she seem happy with the way things are? Any advice about what I should do would be very grateful.
