<human>: So I guess this is kind of a follow up/update to my last post here

Quick summary: I felt that I needed to be single for a while in order to get myself together a bit. I live with my girlfriend of three years in a house with a few friends, and last weekend I kind of ended things with her. It's not that I didn't care about her, but that I don't think I can be in a relationship right now. She doesn't understand but wants to respect my wishes.

The problem now though is we're not sure how to move forward. We've talked about if it was better to just completely distance ourselves from each other and for me to move out or if we could try to go back to being friends. I guess my question for you guys/girls is if going back to being friends ever really works. We want to try it but I'm not sure if it will just make things harder on us. What we're thinking right now is that I try to stay in the same house (I have my own room on a different floor), and that we just give each other space.

She says that she's willing to wait if I just need some time alone as long as can still say that I want things to work out with us, but another problem is that I honestly can't say what I want right now and what I can see for us. Does anyone have some experience this and how I should proceed with all of this? Thanks so much everyone.

Condense the text into a few key points
<bot>: Broke up with my gf for personal reasons, not sure if we should try to be friends or if we should go our own way. Currently live in dif rooms of same house which makes it more complicated.
