I feel like I am in a really good place right now, but again I could get let down by expectations. Previously my biggest concern was that she was only reaching out to me for friendship or emotional support. Now (sort of out of the blue) she goes straight to the physical.

I think relationship talk needs to be kept to a minimum right now. If she brings it up there are really only two possibilities.

1. She says she just wants a friends with benefits relationship. This would hurt a little, but I could agree to it for the time being. I would not say I want more than that. I would just say something like "perfect". And change the subject.

2. She could bring up reconciliation (which is much less likely I think). If she does, I will just say that I hope we can work things out too, but we should take things slow.
