What does it mean when your girlfriend breaks up with you and her reason is...?

Question

and her reason is that she can't handle a relationship right now?

That's what she said.

I know she was going out with a different guy for about 8 months, broke up with him, and then started seeing me a month later, but for only a month before breaking up with me.

Is the reason because she just got out of that other relationship?

Or is there some other hint in there that i'm not picking up?

To kiwi:

I did ask her, and she kind of got defensive and stuck with her original answer

Answer 1

yep....you were just the rebound boy. ya never want to go out with some one right after they break up after a long relationship.
they just don't stick around.

unless you just don't care and are in it for the sex.....and look for those to use you as a rebound.

Answer 2

She's confused and on the rebound. You really don't want to be with someone who is so non-committal. You can't convince her that she can handle a relationship right now so just give her some space and maybe call her once in a while to see how she's doing. Don't stalk her, just call every other week or so to say hello and tell her that you were thinking of her.

Answer 3

She's probably not over the last guy. Being with a new guy in that short period of a time, makes a lot of us miss the previous guy. BAsically every guy I've been with for past 2 years, has made me miss my first boyfriend, whom I'm only friends with as of recently and don't think I"ll ever be getting back with. But...a lot of us reach a point where we feel we can do better than the current, compared to the ex. And she needs time to realize what she wants and deal with her emotions.

Answer 4

I think you should take it for what she said.
Sometimes people enter into rush relationships only to realise that maybe some time was needed to get over her ex so do give her the benefit of the doubt and see where it leads.
I think a month is too short a time for someone to get involved again!

Answer 5

The reason is that she can't handle a relationship with YOU right now. Accept it and move on. There's no hint, she was direct.
The other guy has nothing to do with you.
She borke u with YOU now for the reason she gave.

Answer 6

You may as well accept the reason she gave you and move on. If she doesn't want you anymore nothing else she may say would matter anyway. You can't force someone to love you . Don't pry for more answers , just move on and find someone compatable with you.

Answer 7

she either isn't emotionally, psychologically ready/mature for a relationship or she's using it as an excuse. depends on how she said it.

it's been done by both sexes. some use "let's just be friends" or "it's not you, it's me", or "i'm going through a rough patch" and really mean it. while others say it to get out of their current relationship.

Answer 9

mate,

Personally I feel that you were there as her shoulder to lean on so to speak, maybe theres something else, but I dont know either of you hence I cant really coment on that but hey.
theres always plenty more but yes I have a feeling that she's still getting over her last relationship.
But dont worry man cause it took me a month to get over loosing my GF, now i'm fine and am happily on the hunt once more.

Answer 10

Dude, if you're so curious about what the reason was for breaking up with you then why don't you go ask her why then? There's no harm to it, unless you don't have the guts to do it so it's up to you.
