Hi dude, it takes both hands to clap. Since your gf has called
time and you have tried to salvage. I think its no point forcing
the relationship, as they rightly say, there's no happiness from
being forced.
just let go, be friends or not, I cannot say, depending on you, if
you feel so hurt, then I think you cannot be friends anymore. I
actually feel that "lets be friend" thing is just an excuse, its a
nice pleasant way of ending a relationship - i know some couples
can do it , but personally i think i cannot be friend with someone
who is my lover before.
besides, if i break off, i will break off all contact, its no point
seeing , hearing about you and only to get reminded of the
pain.....
chins up, the end of a relationship is start of another better
one.
