Breaking up over long distance?

[Anonymous]

Me and my girlfriend broke up yesterday mostly because of the distance. It’s been 3 months since she moved. We met when she was finishing college off a dating app and I happened to have graduated from the same college last year and I am now a nurse studying pre med. She has plans to take a gap year for to ready herself to be a law school applicant. I am in Florida and she moved back home to Pennsylvania. We had an amazing relationship and I never felt this way about a person and felt at peace. She always told me the same and I felt like with the money I made as a nurse I was able to do things more extravagant for our age. The communication started to decrease right after her birthday which I sent her a lot of presents for through the mail and I sent her things before that. She was working a lot as she didn’t have much money after graduation and would work 6 days a week doing different jobs to save money so she couldn’t really send me much. When the communication started to decrease I would only get a couple of texts here and there and a snap chat and it soon turned Int 6-7 days with spotty communication and I soon asked if she was done because it started to kinda decrease before her birthday. She got defensive and emotional and said she needed to think because I broke her with that text. Days passed and I realized I wasn’t in the wrong and asked her what she really wanted and she sent what It says in the pics below. I know it’s crazy that I only said ok to that but I had nothing. I tried initiating most of the calls, texting, making an effort to visit and she said that. What do you guys think. Her dad also is locked up so she’s been dealing with that too

What’s meant to be will find its way back, and while you are hurt right now I think both of you made valid points and I don’t think you should feel bad for what you said. You voiced a need in a relationship and it is hard for her to maintain especially with the true obstacles not being present yet. This relationship may even drag you down from success if it is already making you feel horrible that there’s not enough attention here. I think the break up is best for right now for both of you, time will eventually pass and maybe she will cross paths, maybe you will find somebody new that can better cater to your relationship needs

She told you sweet little lies and you started to believe. When someone feels some kind of emotional bond to you, you won't be put away like a toy someone doesn't want to play anymore.

I thought I could have trust which is why I did but what would she have to lie about

[FreyaRed]

Games, people play games which involve emotions quite often

Hey man just hang in there I know it gonna be tough but based on what I'm seeing it was because of some stuff that might be taking a toll on her mentally also long distance relationships aren't easy I know from experience it's going to be hard but just hang in there you will get through this if you need anything feel free to message me also just know your not alone 💪🙏

Whether she's lying or playing games, it's probably best to let her go because that relationship is truly consuming a lot of energy and time wasting. Now you can take deep sleep without overthinking.
