xheyshortyxx Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 ok well me and my girlfriend have been going out for 6 mnths now, after the first mnth of going out, even her friends could see that i was everything she ever wanted in a guy, and she has said that as well, and that shes never felt this way about anyone before and that she truly does love me. me and her have given our virginity to eachother, but she is anorexic, and lately she seems to have been under alot of stress from not eating, school coming up, work(shes a lifeguard and works out in the heat), and has told me that lately she hasnt been feeling it between us as much and that she needs a break from us to be with her family and friends and to straighten out whatever is wrong in her life, cause she has told me that somethings wrong with her mentally and physically, and having a boyfriend right now isnt helping her get healthy again, but she did confess to be that she still loves me alot and really does care about me and our relationship, she just wants me to be her friend for right now till shes okay again, but also did say that deep down inside she doesnt think its over between us, what should i do or say, or is there anything i can do or say to at least keep her as a girlfriend and show her i want to be there for her as a boyfriend, not just a friend??
Heavenseventeen Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Well compared to other break ups on here, yours is the nicest, calmest and makes perfect sense. Before you can love another, you need to be happy with yourself. Your GF understands that totally, which is why she needs to sort her life out before giving herself to you anymore. She has already expressed her wishes, so I think the best thing you can do is go with the flow. If it'll help her solve her issues faster, it will be the best thing. The fact that she gave her virginity to you shows that she probably has all the intentions of coming back to you once she has gotten back on track. Just tell her that you care very much (even though she probably knows that already) and that you will be there for her through everything and after she is ready to come back. PS. I know you want to help her through this ordeal, but anorexia never really goes away. So maybe just learn more about it, and then you'll be able to help her once she gets past the intitial stages towards loving herself again. You sound like a VERY loving boyfriend:love: - well done and good luck.
