Ladies help! Should I chill or should I forget about it?

I and this girl have been friends for over 2 yrs; we started dating a couple of months ago. I love spending time with this girl and we both love each other... she has been having a rough time lately.

She has to deal with issues from her past that she has never dealt with before. She's told me she loves to be with me and I love being with her just as much, but she said she never believes me when I say that.

She told me today that she doesn't think she wants to see me anymore, when I ask her why she said she's already told me before. She is talking about when she tried to break up with me before all she would say was how I shouldn’t want to be with her.

I know she needs her time to figure out everything out for herself to where she can make herself happy and not rely on others. But what do I say or do to let her know that I still love her and I want her to get better.

Is there anything else that she could say to make me understand better?

Update:

This is all really good advise thank you, but it is really hard because she sounded really serious making it clear that I should just leave her alone. She already knows how I feel about her it’s just that to me it sounds like I should let her go. She is already seeing a therapist in fact it was highly recommended she attends group therapy five days a week. I wish she would explain it better to me b/c I’m not ready to let go, but maybe I should...

    She definitely needs time. Although, you shouldn't have to put up w/ this forever. Tell her that you want her to be happy and that she needs to do whatever she needs to do in order to be happy. Ask her to please stop saying she doesn't want to be w/ you anymore or that you shouldn't want to be w/ her if she really does want to be w/ you. It sounds like she is pushing for more sympathy in this time of struggle. Give her what she needs but don't let her bring you down too. Keep spending time w/ her. Try to go do something fun, something that will make her smile. Eventually, you both need to really talk about where this relationship is going, and if she is starting to feel any better. Maybe you should carefully suggest to her to see a coounselor or something. In this situation you are limited in what you can do. She has her own issues to work out, and they don't sound like they involve you at all. Don't think that any of this is your fault. I think she is also dealing w/ low self esteem here, so try to make her feel better about herself. Compliment her in every way, and make her feel extra special. Eventually she will get better and everything will be fine. However, if things do not change or they get worse she really needs to seek professional help to assist her in getting through this emotional crisis she is dealing w/.

    If you back off now, there's a chance that in the future she will come back to you telling you she made a mistake by not wanting to be together. At that point, you may have already met someone else who DOES want to be with you, who makes you happy, doesn't spew all that drama on you and truly cares about you. All you can say to her is what you've said here... that you still love her and want her to get better. If she doesn't beleive that because of her own personal issues, there's not much you can do about it. Is it possible to just hang out together and do fun stuff?

    she seems like she is really insecure about herself which must be a cause from what has happened to her in the past. I think you should definitley stick by her. Her head might be abit messed up at the moment, and deep down she probably wants to be with you still. If you are there for her when she needs you, then that is the best way for her to realise that you really do love her. Good Luck!x x x .

    I'm in a similar situation with my ex. He told me a few months ago that he needs to take a break from everything for personal reasons so he can fix his life and be happy again. Just let her know that you love her and you are there for her if she ever needs anything no matter what. Don't keep trying to chase her, or you'll push her farther away. As long as she knows you're there, she'll respect that you understand her need for space and privacy. If it's meant to be, she'll come back to you. In the meantime keep yourself busy. If you want to wait for her, wait. I'm waiting fo rmy ex to come back because in my heart I know that he will. Follow her gut, but give her her space

    Sounds to me as though she is clinically depressed. She need help and underdstanding from you of all people. Stand by her side and tell her you are there for her and tell her you love her every five minutes if you have to just make her feel special and like she can trust you.

    ow do you know that she is not already better and dealt with her issues? did you ask her that? i dont think she would still be talkin to you if still had issues to deal with so should ask yourself when are you going to tell her u still love her. or even just want to see.

    she hasn't exactly explained to you why she has dumped you....so you should find out. and if it is because of she is having a rough time right now...you should help her get threw her rough times....maybe you will understand why she needs a break then.
