Is there a possibility of a second chance?

My girlfriend of 8 months broke up with me last week. She said she felt she couldn’t make me a priority and that she didn’t want to waste my time. We are both single parents and live an hour apart. I would see her every other weekend because of her work schedule. She’s a nurse and in school. Everything seemed fine up until she started this semester. This one has her occupied an extra day. I made all these offers to spend more time at her place to help out and be there because we both felt we never had enough time together. The relationship we had was a very loving and caring one. She said before she hung up on me, “You’ve shown me what a loving and caring relationship is like and I’m so thankful for that. I just feel like I can’t prioritize you and don’t want to waste your time.” I told her she wasn’t wasting my time at all. The last words she said was, “I have to run away. I love you.” I’m just so lost and hope that there’s a chance to talk to her after I break no contact in a few weeks.

Dang man that really sucks. I know how hard it is with the whole single parent long distance thing. I mean she said she loves you still right? Maybe she's just super stressed with school and stuff, nurses have it rough. I'd give her some space for sure, like you said don't want to be all clingy. But maybe reach out in a few weeks nice and casual, see how she's doing with school and all. Tell her you miss talking to her, see if she wants to maybe just meet for coffee or something low key. Who knows, once things calm down maybe she'll realize you guys worked through it before. Just play it cool for now bruh, her heads probably all over the place. Fingers crossed it works out!

I hate that she had to drop you because she let work and being a parent get the best of her. But im sure if you choose to not be a priority then yea there's a second chance. But why would you want that?

[clashcity22]

Because I love her and want to be with her. I see a future with her and she had talked about me bringing my stuff and leaving it over time so it would be easier to assimilate later on. She wanted a picture of my son as a baby for her wall with her daughter, nieces and nephews. It felt like she wanted long term as much as I did.

I also would be fine with not being number 1. I have a life too and it’s busy. Making time for each other is something I’m willing to do.

Maybe its right person, wrong time. Tell her you’ll be there when she's ready and let her come back on her own time

i don’t think so. if she broke up with you than i think she won't go back to you. or maybe she can cuz miracles can happen:)
