This might sound

to some but write..
Keep a journal or just write her letters( never and I repeat never send them to her)and get your thoughts out for you to see them..
I kept a journal for about two years..
Sometimes it would be long entries and others would just be short simple things or I would write haikus and that shyt would be cathartic as hell..
Seeing your emotions on paper(at least for me) put things in perspective..
Also meditating and just being still(even if it’s for 5mins) can help..
If you are really going to try to be friends(which I’m against all the way)..
Give yourself a 6 month period..
No connection..
No Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat stalking..
Act like she is dead and get yourself right..
You will know when you are strong enough..
Then reach out but hopefully by that time..
You have found new interests and developed a stronger will and understanding of why things didn’t workout..
Plus your confidence will be higher..
When a woman sees you are not bothered and you glowing like..
Breh, that feeling
