We broke up recently. Im 29 and she's 32. We were together for 8 months and its the first time she's been with someone for more than 4 months. After two months i moved in with her and it was not an easy relationship. I do miss her but its other aspects of the relationship i dont miss at all. She thought my parents are to dominating and they can be some times. But i also get along with them and want to continue visit them sometimes.. She was pushing me really hard to confront my parents about being controlling against me. She once told me i had to tell them i need time from them and tell them to stop calling me and that i would reach out when i was ready. I told her that i don't have the energy for that and while i admit i should become more independent i asked her if she can let me do it more gradually.
Eventually she pressured me to send a long and confrontational email to my mother. I refused to do it and then she did it even though i didn't want her to.
And her parents came and slept over very frequently and they also interfered a lot in our relationship. For a while i didn't have a job and was talked into financial help from her mother whom i later had to pay a lot back. Shortly before we broke up i visited my parents quite a bit and my EX`s parents got really mad at me because they thought i visited my parents way to much when my girlfriend had to work. It seems to me that her parents was happe about us in the begining but after a few months their opinion of me as the boyfriend changed dramatically. They were mad at me for taking "to long" to get a full time job, and visiting my parents a couple of times while my girlfriend worked. However we did have many good moments together and i really miss them. I really miss her but her parents makes it very difficult for me to try again with her. Should i tell her? What are your thoughts?
