I would like to offer a littel insight to what your ex may be going through, even though she may not even be aware of it.

Quite often when a child has been in and out of foster care, they will at some point try to prove she isn't loved. This may be what is going on with her. It would fit with the breaking up and making up. She whants that reassurance from you that you still want her. This doesn't help your situation any but it is something that you must think about if you decide to get back together.

Foster children that have been bounced around have attachment issues. Either they attach too quickly and too easily. Or they can't maintain a relationship because of the feeling that they don't deserve love.

If there is anyway that you can talk her into counceling that could help her.

No one can tell you what to do, but if you can see your way clear to be a friend, she needs this right now.
