my recent girlfriend broke up with me and is saying she isn’t fit for a boyfriend at this moment. she saying she loves being my friend and wants it to stay that way. but as of now, major shade has been thrown at me and i’ve been hated on. i still like her now but i don’t know if we are gonna ever get back together. i have the choice of cutting her off or staying her friend in the hopes of reconnecting again when school starts up. what should i do?

edit: it’s her birthday rn and i don’t wanna “drop the bomb” on what’s supposed to be a really happy day in her life. over rationalizing and over sympathizing is what’s killing me.
