If she's really a friend worth keeping she'll understand that you're hurting and give you the space you'll need to get over the rejection.

She pretty much gave me the same advice herself.

Whether that's reading, music, comics, drawing, writing, etc. Find something that you enjoy doing alone that you do just to make you happy and it will make your life all the better.
Once you remember how to live without that person, it makes it a lot easier to be friends again.

I guess. I'm just worried about losing touch completely. I do still want her in my life even if it's no longer as a lover. She's the one who helped me through my mother passing away.

I'm trying. I'm even back on the 'drome to tap into some nostalgia. Just don't have much going on right now.
