I feel that with my girlfriend the last thing that I ever want to do is hurt her since me and her just got back together and since things are in such a great place right now, I lied to her but not in the way you would think. I lied to her in terms of telling a white lie by telling her that I was going away for 2 weeks but in actuality I am not, I just said that because personally I need time away from her because I feel that the more time I spend with her, the more likely I am to hurt her somehow and believe me that is the last thing I ever want to do in this world is hurt her. I love her too much to hurt her and believe me when I say that I have had my fair share of problems with her in terms of honesty and trust but I feel that by lying to her, I am protecting her from myself because I want to take things slow because I feel like if we rush things along in our relationship, the more likely I am to hurt her or the more likely she is to hurt me somehow since she has also hurt me in the past.

 

Anyone have any advice for me in this situation!!!!!!!!!

Honestly, unless there's stuff your leaving out, it doesn't make much sense.

If I were in a relationship and lied to about a 2 week absense, I wouldn't be very happy about it and my partner would lose a lot of points on the trust scale, whatever the reason.

 

Whatever you're issues are you need to stop trying to protect her by lying to her and discuss it. For any relationship to be healthy, it must be an open one.

 

But, you already know all this. :)

Yes I understand what you are saying but at the same time I don't want to hurt her because I feel like in my relationship with her, that is all I have ever done is hurt her and or lie to her but my intentions here I feel were good because I am trying to protect her from myself
