Split with girlfriend recently and asked if she wants let me explain how I've been behaving the way I have.
Got response saying I need to give her time and she will let me know when she's ready.
Been told to not contact her at all .....what's people's advice, how long does she need or how long before I message her to start contact??? |

Ignoring the fact that you’re on here as a single man and yet you until recently had a girlfriend…..
You’ve been told not to contact her at all and she will let you know when she’s ready.
So you should do exactly as she says and not contact her until she contacts you first.
Anything else is just proof to her that you don’t give a shit about her wishes |

Try not contacting her , and give her time and hopefully she’ll let you know when she’s ready  
Good luck. |

That's your answer-- as tough as it is, she does not consent to being contacted by you.
It hurts now, but it won't hurt forever. |

Has she found out you're on here or that you cross dress maybe thats the reason and chances are she may not contact you but who can predict what a woman can do, hope she gets back  |

How have you been behaving that you feel the need to explain?
Don't message her ever. |

When I broke up with my ex she started to miss me and asked to come over for a chat couldn't say no purely because she's ridiculously hot .. didn't do any chatting just smashed the life out of her.. why anyone would waste time wondering stupid shit like when should I message someone who's told me to leave them alone is beyond me .. fuck that |

You should respect her wishes, anything else can go south very quickly.
If you are on FAB then I would say you don't care and have moved on already.
Let it be. |

If you have split recently, why do you feel the need to contact her right now?
What are you looking for out of any contact? A re-kindling of the relationship, a friendship, a chance to get things off your chest and then move on or something else?
Think about your intention
From the tone of your OP, you seem to think that your behaviour is (part of) the reason for the split
That may, or may not, be the case
Allow her some breathing space - allow yourself some breathing space
You don't need to 'move on' right now. You can stand still and take stock before you do move on
Talk to your friends, get things out of your head onto paper, write your thoughts out - that, in itself can release some of the burden
If you feel you are struggling to adjust, seek help professionally
People here, don't know you, your ex or your circumstances - the help offered, whilst well intended, won't necessarily be impartial
Women will (generally) see things from your ex's perspective, men will (sometimes) try and grate you by writing shitty comments that aren't helpful - and have no foundation
Much of it will be conjecture
For now, you just concentrate on standing on your own two feet and doing things that make you happy |

What ever the reason for your split and it takes two people to make and also break a relationship. She will contact you when she is ready and until then just focus on healing yourself and addressing any issues you have which may have contributed to the split. |

Move on she doesn’t want you so any future relationship will just be a negative thing for you. |

I totally understand needing time as I am a processor. That said you can’t keep someone waiting forever.
Whatever has happened has happened. If she has not agreed to how long she needs then maybe prepare for the worse.
Don’t be out there looking for more or with someone else as you don’t want her to say I’m ready for a talk and find out you’ve been elsewhere.
That said things work both ways. You can’t wait forever, for me the not knowing is worse than the knowing |

"She asked you not to contact her again. So don’t. Leave the poor woman alone."
Ha! This, OP. This.
It seems as though you’ve posted here hoping for approval from the club to have at it. I’d say the resounding answer is the opposite.
Tough as it can be, try to find other things to occupy your mind and start the process of moving on.
Also - try to ignore the classless knobheads. |

Yes, I agree. She's not interested anymore. Perhaps she's realized there's a secret side to you she doesn't know about and made her choice. Don't contact her or you'll make problems |

Needs context.
If she's upset because you forgot her birthday then leave it a few weeks.
If she's upset because that's her gear your wearing in the photos then heed the advice above. Leave well alone. |

Read what you have written about what she said. She needs time and will contact you when she is ready. That means you don't contact her at all so don't start messaging her. |

Have more respect for your self first. Get the head space correct and right,the rest will fall in place.

As others said, she doesn't want you to contact her and she will contact you if she decides she wants to.
If you contact her then you're likely to blow any chance you may have of keeping in contact in the future.
Leave her be |

Having been on the receiving end of an ex who wouldn’t leave me alone. Please do as she says. She doesn’t want you to contact her so leave her alone. It’s exhausting. |

Having been on the recieving end of an ex who wouldn't respect my wishes or boundaries after a break-up, I beg you to leave that Woman the fuck alone.
You may feel like you need to get stuff off of your chest, but she may not want to hear your excuses/justifications for your behaviour and that's well within her right.
She will contact you if/when she wants to talk.
Focus on you. |

I'm struggling to see what's so difficult to understand here.
She's told you not to contact her.
That means you don't.
Ever.
IF and when she's ready to start talking again, she'll contact you.

Then have some god damn self respect and walk the fuck away.
I get it, when you love someone it's hard, harder if you're the one who has been the cause of the breakup.
But man we are too old with not enough time left on this planet to play games etc.
She's asked for no contact... Honour that.
If you think she's playing games why even bother?! |

She said , clear as a bell, " I will let you know when I am ready."
No need to ask strangers about your own relationship your ex girlfriend said ...... clear as a bell , " I will let you know.... "
Experience tells me it's over. Go forward as if it's over. If ever she does contact you then that is the time you need to decide if you want contact again.
In the meantime ..... Live... just live well. |

I hate game players, I'm too old for that crap. Grow up and have an adult relationship.
My ex played games. I said don't, if you want something, tell me. If I've inadvertently upset you, tell me. Do not test my aaffection.
Do not play games.
She played games.
She's an ex.
I can't be doing with it.
In the OPs instance, I don't think she's playing games. She said clearly what she wants.
And it isn't him.

Yes it's the not knowing that is the worst....I appreciate her wanting space and respect her wishes but just a text from her saying that and not her sister would at least be a common courtesy |

I was in a very abusive relationship before her, now suffer from PTSD and found out that it's common to revert back to the person I was then so was a total mess.....put so much into her and didn't realise what I was being like until I discussed it with my coumcillor |
