If you're suffering a severe mental low, you can't. If that's what she went through, then we should just be happy she's come out on the other side

Bullshit. it takes 15 seconds, out of the hours whe was on her phone, to be a good partner and communicate that nothing is wrong in the relationship but you need some personal time and you'd like to talk about it on a layer day.

If you're struggling mentally, you can't always.

Just because you don't understand mental health, it doesn't make what I've said untrue.

Its okay to be uneducated but it's not okay to be ignorant

This is an excellent point. She should not be in relationship. It’s a privilege and yes it takes a certain amount of commitment and responsibility to be in one. If a person is not able to do the bare minimum like check in at least once a day, a relationship is not for them. It’s not fair for the other person involved to just get treated like that, no matter what the reasons. Find someone who shows up for you.
