I'll also post this in a relationship sub but I mainly wanted a more casual answer/perspective.

TL;DR: I recently broke up with my gf but we are still good friends. I kinda want to get back together with her, but I don't know if it's because I don't want to be alone right now or if I do want to be with her, if that makes sense.

We broke up but it was mutual. We mainly have problems we have to deal with ourselves (depression, anxiety, communication), but overall I'd say we worked well with each other. At first when it happened I didn't even wanna talk to the person at all, but over time we started talking again (as friends) and I do miss her. Yes there were times I wasn't too happy but looking back/forward, I'm not sure if I'd be happier with or without this person. At first I thought this was for the best but now I think I'd be unhappy if we weren't together or at least tried again.

Is this what love is? I can't even tell...I don't know what to do. It's just annoying making mistakes I wish I had the right answer on which path to take.

I haven't had many relationships. This one lasted about a year and a half and we've been apart for about a month. I just question things because previously I was in a 3 year relationship that ended and I did have that "alone" feeling but I didn't want to get back with the person. This time it feels different
