I told her during the breakup conversation that we should both take some time to work on ourselves. She said ok.
This is what she said via text messaging: "I think that maybe we should go our separate ways and if we realize we're exactly what we want, we can try again. Like, work on yourself for a bit and I'll do the same. If it feels like we're right for each other then, then we can give it another shot."
Can anyone decode this?
There's nothing to decode... .she's doing exactly what you said you wanted. I have to agree with her, if it feels right then you give it another shot. Give it some time. Maybe in a few more days the reasons you left in the first place will sink in. If the relationship causes you so much stress perhaps you're not right for each other.
