Should I keep seeing my ex?

Question

So we broke up a few months ago and agreed to stay friends, the problems we had in the relationship were gone like this so I made the move and asked her out on a date. She just wanted to be friends because she’s not ready for a relationship at this point, I was pretty upset by this because we treat each other more than friends so I asked for some space. Should I still see her even tho I’m not happy being just friends or should I stop talking to her all together?

If you think she is serious about the "just friends" thing  it would be best to go cold turkey and not see her at all.  BUT if you think you can change her mind on the "just friends" thing it's probably worth a try.

Keeping seeing your ex as friends, when it doesn't make you happy, it just constantly picking at a scab... it never heals !

Most adults, if they don't have kids, when they split, they draw a line under the relationship and move on. They do not remain friends with their ex or keep seeing them.

It sounds like you are still invested in this past relationship and your ex isn't …. for your own sanity you need to move on...and cut contact.

If you guys broke up, then in order to heal from the brokenness is to leave her be.  If she is not ready for a relationship, then you have to live with her decision.  Otherwise any action to force a relationship could ruin your opportunities for later.  She says she just wants to be friends right now.  Then be the 'best' friend you can be to her right now and earn her back.

If you do not think you want to do this then move on.  And maybe revisit this later in life when maybe she is ready or you guys can reconcile.  Usually when a break up happens it takes time to heal.  Everyone is different and healing is different for each individual.

U will never meet a perfect person until both have same views on love.
