Washedupathlete Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 We have been together for 5 and a half years, since we were 16 and she said she needs space. Things were great, we never really has any problems that were very serious, took a small break about 2 years ago but continued talking. 3 weeks ago she tells me she is moving out for other reasons than our relationship, turns out it was because of it. We have been on a break until today, she just broke up with me. She tells me she still loves me but needs space. Her reasons are that I do not go around her family enough, do not treat her like she needs to be, and that I don't show her I care enough. Totally random and unlike her. She said that she had just started thinking about this the last few weeks, not months or years, weeks... There is no other guy so please don't say that in a response. She never gave me a chance to change, or even gave me input on the situation. Will she regret this sooner than later? How long until I need to move on? I have given up so much for this relationship, what do I do??? 14 hrs ago -
RedHawk08 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 3 weeks isn't even enough to calm down yet. To be honest, how you behave now is a critical time. Screw this up, and you'll be repairing the damage for months! Calm yourself down, get away from other people and their opinions, and have a gentle word with yourself. Ask yourself where both of you went wrong. Then do what you can on yourself to fix things. Make yourself a better man than you were before. Doesn't sound like the fat lady has sung yet.
Author Washedupathlete Posted September 20, 2013 Author Posted September 20, 2013 Problem is I can't show her I have changed cause I would have to be with her to do it, and who knows how long until she texts or calls me
Chi townD Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 The you move on with your life and start making massive positive changes. The thing is you were together for 5 years. You were kids when you met. When we become young adults. What we wanted or what we envisioned for ourselves is completely different from what we wanted when we were 16. We become different people. So, give yourself some time to heal from this and move on. Get to know the new person that YOU are.
Salvatore85 Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 The truth is you haven't changed, I'm sorry it just doesn't work like that. The moment you get her back your personality will revert back because that's just who you are. I understand you love her but why would you want to change to be with someone? Wouldn't you be much more comfortable being with someone who loves you for who you are as opposed to what they want you to be?
