not sur where to begin with this, but in my head just getting it out there is going to help. I'm not asking everyone to read this nor do I expect it.
last night my girlfriend told me that she is no longer happy with our relationship and that we need to take time apart. This came as a huge surprise as I thought everything was going well (doesn't everyone in this situation though). We talked for a few hours, trying to just calm each other down. We decide it will be better off to talk in person. so we go drive around for another few hours talking about our flaws. I am not a very emotional person, so I was having a very hard time even talking let alone expressing myself emotionally. It seems like we got a lot off of our chests in regards to what was causing issues in the relationship, but she decided she still thinks time off is going to be best.
I completely respect her decision, but I am just having such a hard time coping and dealing with this. every minute I find myself picking up the phone to call her or text her. just today I've called and burst into tears 3 times and all that comes from the call is me apologizing for calling in the first place.
now we have been together for 6 years last october, and I've dedicated my life to her and work trying to get us everything we could want or need, because of such I have very few if any friends who want anything to deal with me. I have no family to talk to theyve abandoned me long ago everything i know is telling me to take my mind off of things but nothing i seem to do helps.
one of the biggest concerns she had with me is that I cant make my own decisions and put too much on her. I really am not ready to lose her in this time of my life but i'm so afraid of pushing her away more by trying to fix things.
sorry for the rant.
