girl is thinking of breaking up because of her internship

she's not 100% sure we can make it work

we've completely switched roles -- i was the one who wanted a break, who wasn't sure what would happen and wanted to be realistic about the long distance thing

then i thought about it, had a talk with my dad, and everything clicked

she's the girl i want to marry. i can say that with all honesty

we get along more than anyone i've ever dated

and she just gets me

it's the best relationship i've been in, even despite the faults.

(and it's not all perfect. nothing ever is.)

but it /works/

and now she's gone from being 100% sure of the future to not being sure, to telling me she wants to take a break, that she might want to break up

i don't understand people

i don't think i ever will

and this is just. i can't be the asshole. i can't give her an ultimatum and be like: "pick me or pick your internship."

that's stupid.

and i can't say: "you believe in us 100% or you don't at all." because that's unfair to her

just don't know what to do

we had a long, long talk and i agreed to taking a break

(but an honest one, where we tell each other what happens if anything doe s soon after it happens.)

and now she's just sitting next to me chatting away on her phone with a friend of mine

and she keeps telling me that she doesn't know.

I would reassure her that you have her, 100 percent.

that you're there to support her, even if you won't like the decision.

or...ergh that sounded bitchy

I told her that she should do whatever makes her happy. (And I tried to be as nice about it as I could)

Since that's what my dad taught me -- you shouldn't be with someone if you're not happy about it.

Gotta let the lady do what's right for her. Sorry it's been hard for you, though. Life's a bitch.

blizzardseason: I'm slowly preparing myself for whatever she decides.
