Q: Making a Tough Decision
asked by: strungoutboy21 on January 31st, 2006

So my girlfriend and I broke up yesterday and ever since then I can't think straight, eat, or stop from crying every now and then. We had gone out for 6 months and we broke up because I was confused about my feelings. Like the first 4 months everything was awesome and she meant so much to me. The last couple of months I haven't been as good as a boyfriend as I had before and have been getting mad at stupid things and not supporting her like I should. We told each other we loved each other and I totally felt it. Now we are at the point where she gave me a couple of days to think about what I want and i'm still confused. I want to get back together with her but if something happens down the road, I don't want to break her heart. I know it's a decision only I can make but it would be nice for some advice. By the way i'm 25.

It's sweet that you are thinking of her and worried that you might break her heart, but perhaps it's not necessarily the end.

You said everything went well at first-were you more relaxed then? My relationships with my ex lasted 7 months and in a way we started snapping at each others heels and he said he needed space. I feel much freer but now after two weeks he's saying he misses me. In your case, you sound like your very much attached to this girl.

I've read that men tend to break away or to put it in another term 'have a break'. You said about you two talking of making a choice of how you feel. A man tends to have to break away to really know what he feels; if he can't stop thinking about her after a week or two, then it's defintitely love. I know that it may be hard to regain what you had, but becoming friends and staying in touch, i'm sure you can rekindle it all back.

So smile and try and get on with it; and make sure you stay all healthy and fit for her return; and that means eating and drinking, so find a way to regain your appetite!

Good luck,
kitty

I agree with the last post! People take breaks to realize what their true feelings are for someone. If you're able to be over it in a few days, then it really isn't love, but if it takes forever then it is.

I was in a relationship a few years ago, the guy & I had been on & off for 6 months or so, it seemed like every few weeks we were taking a day or two break. We always ran back to each other. We were very confused about our feelings. Finally, we broke up for good. He more less told me the same thing you said in your post, he didn't want to break my heart if something happened down the road. I couldn't eat, sleep, move, nothing for waay over a month! I talked to him a few months later & he wanted me back, I said no because I was with someone else & I couldn't take the heartbreak with him again. I didn't want to be with anyone else, I wanted to bad just to run back to him but I knew I couldn't. One thing though, he still has a spot in my heart and I will forever love him, but we will never be back together!




What's happening with you is just testing your relationship with the both of you. If you love her or you don't. In the end you will make the right choice for her. More then likely if you can't get her off your mind or function right, you will end up back with her. Good luck, I know it's tough but you will make it!
