After six months, she reached out to me for help with university. I took the chance to share how I feel, but she made it clear that she only wants to be friends. I explained that I can’t be just friends with her, but I’d still do my best to help her if it doesn’t hurt me.
Why does she want to stay friends? Is it time for me to move on? Should I keep in touch with her?

It's understandable to feel hurt and confused. It's okay to take your time to process your feelings. Remember, your well-being is the priority.
Sometimes, people have different intentions. Maybe she's genuinely trying to move on and reconnect as friends. But if it's causing you pain, it's okay to distance yourself.
If she only wants a friendship, ask yourself if that's what you truly want. Is it worth the emotional toll?
Your peace of mind is more important than any friendship. If maintaining contact is causing you pain, it's time to let go.
Invest your energy in relationships that bring you joy and support. Surround yourself with positive influences.
Don’t expect things to change. Embrace the reality and keep moving forward.
If you decide to maintain contact, set clear boundaries to protect your emotional well-being.
Time may not erase the pain, but it can help you heal and move on.
It’s best to just block them if it’s causing you pain. Helping her now will only bring more hurt in the long run.
Set clear boundaries with her, and only help if it aligns with your values and comfort. Prioritize mutual respect and make sure any support you offer is given freely and without conditions.
