Don't worry about what she said someone said. Don't worry about what she said. Worry about what you feel is the best, most mature and thoughtful decision you are making and make them. If that is patience, it is a decision.
She may come back, she may not. Hope doesn't fade, it becomes less likely. Only you can choose to hope less in something unprobable. How many of us hope to get to space, even though the chances are so miniscule. Hope can still remain until you decided otherwise.
