Relationships

My girlfriend broke up with me on the flight to the place I was planning on proposing, she said she would give me a chance and see how the week goes?

I was planning on proposing on a planned vacation with some of her friends, but she told me that she doesn’t think we are ready a week before the trip. Not knowing that I was planning it, I told her and now she has really pulled away. On the flight she broke up with me after an argument we had. I begged her to just give me a chance because I had no idea that we even had these major issues to the point she was this unhappy, because she had apparently been complaining about me to friends and family for a while.

She agreed but she was nervous how I was going to be around her friends because she hasn’t seen them in years since they live abroad. All of her friends are from the same country and I’ve been learning their language but am not fluent yet. And the one friend asked how much he had to speak English and my girlfriend said to please try to speak English. I promised her too that I would try not to let what happened ruin the trip for her and her friends sake.

The friend showed up and all he has done is complain the entire first day. Anything we brought up for food he shot down, he thought everything was ugly, anytime we mentioned any other place we traveled he would say it’s dangerous or ugly. We barely ate all day because he didn’t want any of the local food like me and my girlfriend wanted or complained that it was too expensive.

I was keeping quiet and just trying to ignore it and enjoy the day until it came time to choose a place for dinner and he just kept rejecting every idea. And I eventually said that I’m fine with whatever, you guys just pick. But my girlfriend could tell that I was getting annoyed and kept pushing for me to say what I want and wouldn’t drop it. Eventually I did get annoyed because he said he just wanted McDonald’s and I said “I did not travel across the world to get McDonald’s”. I just don’t know what I could have done, I tried to stay out of it. But I think it screwed me and my chances of fixing things with my girlfriend.

I’ve been having panic attacks every night, I feel like everything I do now will end things permanently. I’ve been trying desperately to act normal but I’ve never been more on edge and more stressed. On top of the fact that my girlfriend has been speaking her language more and more as the trip as gone on with her friends, leaving me alone.

But she had warned me that her friends may not want to speak English, so I feel like I can’t say anything or else it will further upset her.
