xoregan Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 I HAVE BEEN WITH MY GIRLFRIEND FOR 5 AND A HALF YEARS. WE STARTED TALKING WHEN SHE WAS 16 AND HAVE BEEN GREAT EVER SINCE, THROUGH THE YEARS WE HAVE GROWN TO LOVE EACH OTHER VERY MUCH. WHEN I FIRST MET HER SHE WAS STILL A VIRGIN, I ENDED UP TAKING HER VIRGINITY AND TEACHING HER AND SHOWING HER NEW THINGS. OUR RELATIONSHIP HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE BEST, NOW SHE'S 20 ABOUT TO BE 21 IN HER JUNIOR YEAR OF COLLEGE AND CAME AT ME WITH SOMETHING I DIDNT EXSPECT. SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE WANTED TO TAKE A BREAK FROM THE RELATIONSHIP FOR A WHILE? THAT CONFUSED ME BIG TIME AFTER ALL THAT WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH, SHE EXSPRESSED LOVE AND COMITMENT TO ME TIME AND TIME AGAIN. DURING THE CONVO SHE TOLD ME HOW SHE DOESNT NOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE SINGLE? SHE SAYS THAT SHE HAS BEEN WITH ME SO LONG THAT SHE FEELS LIKE IF SHE DOSENT TAKE THE BREAK THAT SHE WOULDNT BE SURE ABOUT US. KEEP IN MIND I DID NOTHING WRONG SO SHE STATED, SHE SAID IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME, SHE ALSO SAID THAT SHE DOES NOT WANT TO BREAK UP BUT THAT SHE WANTS A BREAK FROM THE RELATIONSHIP. SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE WANTED TO DATE OTHER MEN , SHE SAID SHE DIDNT WANT THE TITLE OF BEING COMMITED TO SEE HOW IT FELT, I TOLD HER I LOVED HER AND IF THATS HOW SHE FELT THEN OK. WHEN I TOLD HER I LOVED HER AND ALWAYS WILL SHE STARTED CRYING . I UNDERSTAND WHERE SHE IS COMING FROM , SHE HAS ONLY BEEN WITH ME ALL THESE YEARS AND IM ALL SHE KNOWS. SHE BROUGHT UP MARIAGE AND I SAID WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR A LONG TIME AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN A DREAM BUT MARIAGE IS WAY DOWN THE LINE. SHE SAID SHE DOSENT WANT TO WAIT TILL THAT POINT AND NOT WANT TO MARY ME THATS WHY SHE WANTS THE BREAK. I HAVE NEVER REALLY HAD A GIRL FRIEND ALL MY LIFE EXCEPT HER , I NEVER WANTED ONE, I WAS ALWAYS TALKING TO A LOT OF GIRLS. BUT AFTER 5 AND A HALF YEARS WITH A GIRL YOU REALLY LOVE, TO FIND OUT SHE WANTS A BREAK OUT THE BLUE WHEN THINGS SEEMED OK IS SHOCKING
lonelyandnonexistant Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 hmm women, the day before you break up things could seem great and you both seem happy but then the next day they arent happy and supposedly werent happy for a while and say u knew this was coming and u didn't do anything to change. yet they hide it so well. communication is key in a relationship.
Angeleyez2583 Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 Sometimes people really do need time to figure out what they want. Especially when they've been with someone and begin to lose a sense of who they are. The relationship begins to define a person. Like the old saying goes, let her go. If she comes back it was meant to be, and if not, then well you know. Just make sure to keep yourself busy and try and move on. If she comes back it may either be a pleasant surprise or you may not even want her anymore. All and all move on!
pioneer Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 I was with my ex for exactly the same amount of time, and she said the exact thing and shes the same age. She wanted a break to sort her head out................That was 7 months ago, shes now with someone else.
scarlyjones Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 Well,.......shes right. This is something you, yourself needed too in my opinion. She does need to experience "life". Lets face it,...we go around this world once. She didnt have a single lifestyle yet. Shes entitled to one. So are you, though. I think if you both are meant to be together (sounds like you are) then, in time,....it will be that way. In the meantime,..let her have her little break. She just wants to experience other things right now.
pioneer Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 Shes getting cold feet about the relationship. no contact
