I hope this doesn’t come off offensively, but I think it makes sense now that it’s had time to resonate.

 

Things were going well with my ex and I before she pulled the plug. I told her that I was starting to trust her and become more comfortable around her. I offered to buy her a small gift (less than $5) for our upcoming two months.

 

The thing is..

 

She was horrifically abused as a child, so much so that she was put into foster care. I don’t know the full extent of her abuse; she was coming out with it piece by piece. I think that it freaked her out, pretty immensely. I also grew up in an abusive home, more aligning with sexual abuse. I thought it was an important piece to our story that we shared.

 

I’m not sure how I should go about our next conversation, but I know it’s not the last one we are going to have.

 

 

Again, none of this was meant offensively, it just seems to make the most sense.

I'm sorry for you both.

 

However, you were only dating for 60 days. While you may still be talking, she may be too broken to trust enough to be in a relationship. I'd tread very lightly here & keep your expectations in check.
