She didn’t ask me to share the apartment with her. She told me that she needs some space and time to heal. I don’t really understand it, but the break up with Jim has been really hard on her. She was with him for about 4 years and they were engaged.
The apartment is just a few miles from her new job. And even closer to one of the companies that I have an offer from.
She signed all the paperwork in the rental office. She got 3 sets of keys, we walked over to the apartment she picked out and we went inside. It had the smell of new to it. We kissed. “Why didn’t we get together back in college?” she asked me while hugging me in the empty apartment.
“I don’t know", I replied. She was the cute – and smart – undergrad who was in a couple of my graduate level computer classes. She always got special attention from the TAs – who were always guys.

Like I said previously, no matter how bad the previous relationship was, she still needs time to grieve the loss or gain, however she may see it. Give her the space she needs and don't rush things more than she wants them rushed.

I agree with Violet. It is a very long, very difficult thing to come to terms with when you love a person and they are to marry you, and then have them abuse you. I know, something similar happened to me.
Hit me up in email if you wish to talk. :)

If you "don't understand" now you'd better hurry up and start. Maybe try standing her her shoes and imaging what it must be like for her. That could go a long way for you right about now.
