Complicated situation

Hi,

Firstly, apologies for whats probably a long waffling post.

Basically during the summer i was in a relationship with a girl with whom i'd been friends for a while. Her boyfriend had died last christmas and at the time she'd turned to me for support. Close friendship gradually grew to become a relationship and we had a great summer together, until she admitted that she was still struggling to get over her boyfriend, and the relationship would never work out until she could get over him.

When we split up she told me she still loved me, and i obviously still loved her. I tried to get over her and thought that i'd succeeded until tonight, when I got invited to a party in a few weeks time and was told that she's also going to be there. I also found out that she's still single. Having found her facebook account i've been repeatedly looking at her photo on there and wishing that she was still mine.

Phoned the guy who invited me to the party and he admitted to me that teh main reason for inviting us both to the same party is to try to get us back together. Thing is - its still a month off, and I dont know if i can wait that long to see her / talk to her... and also whether i can cope with the uncertainty for a month. Should i phone her? should i avoid letting my hopes build up?

Ok - thanks to anyone who's managed to read through that, understand it, think i'm not a complete nutter, and still feels like replying with advice!

I'd wait it out, personally.
Whatever you do, don't get your hopes up...if things don't turn out how you'd like, you'll feel much worse.

Best not to phone her.
Just go to the party and bump in to her by 'accident'. Have a chat and see how things work out.
Slowly slowly catchy girly.
