Girlfriend wants a break, what to do?

First of all you should not be paranoid or thinking about it......relationships are like stories.there is a beginning, middle, climax, and end. I dont know how old you guys are, but it is anyone prerogative as a person to want to be n their own. How do we grow as individuals if we are always living and learning life through others and lets be honest when we are in relationships some if not a lot of our time is spent with the other person and pleasing them so we can't get a good gauge on who we are or get lost in who we are or can forget who we are.

It is typical if you have taken her for granted, it happens in lots of relationships and as the saying goes we dont miss someone until they are gone for good. However, maybe you both need to experience other things and people in your lives and maybe you may gravitate back to each other or at least be good friend on some level since you did share so much for three years. The ugly truth is she may have also met someone else who excites her again and wants to explore without hurting you in the process. The unfortunate part about long term relationships is they can get worn, jaded, and well boring and it will test thinsg depending on the age sometimes.

If you have come to your senses then if you meet someone else try to not let these feelings she described do to your new relationship like it did to the old. That can be done by having dinner just the two of you, going to shows, doing things. If you honestly did not feel like doing these things with her and she took it as being taken advantage of then you probably were not the right fit. If you dont enjoy doing things besides simple things and she does not and wanted more then you were not the right fit again. You tried though and she still wants time to herself so let her. The more you try for something she doesnt want just makes you come off as annoying and paranoid and that is you worrying about your own feelings through her which is selfish. If you truely like her then you want her to be happy no matter what...........its hard to understand now but beleive me you will feel better in the future and despite how you may feel abouther decision now you will want her to be happy in the future even without you. I dont know much about you too so all i can do is answer to what you wrote.

Sometimes the hardest thing to do, which is let go, it is the right thing to do. In this case you have to let her go and give her the space she is asking. Tell her that you love her and that you will be there for her if she decides to get back. This doesn't mean the end, but you have to be brave and strong.

give her the break she is wanting. that may be her excuse to get away from you. and if so is she really someone you want in your life. if she feels like you have been mistreating her and taking her for granted then she doesn't appreciate what you really do for her. you have to make the decision yourself if she is really worth it anymore. maybe its time to move on.

Let her go without the drama. Leave her alone, alone!! If she comes back she is yours. if not, it is for the best.

Bang one of her friends.
