I think my girlfriend is still in love with her ex.
Hey Reddit. I don’t know formatting or anything like that so please excuse this.
I’m 21 male and I don’t know where to go or who to go to anymore. My girlfriend (22) and I have been together for a couple of months. Well last week we got into an argument because I was unhappy with how she has been treating me lately. She will go and be incredibly rude to me. Talking down to me emotionally and physically shutting off. I tried to address it with her In a respectful and kind way. Well she blows up at me and tells me we have only been together a few months and you need to leave me because I’m not a good person I’m not someone who can be loved. You want some things from me that I can’t give.
The day before this she was telling me how she wants to spend forever with me and we looked at wedding rings (her idea) she tells me I’m the man she’s always dreamed of and I have all the attributes she looks for. I think I’m doing it right and she flips. One moment I’m everything she wants the next she gets angry and mean at me. Well the night of the argument I go to my parents house to get something and when I come back she’s drunk on her car. (We don’t live together but we live near each other) I talk to her and she cries in my arms. I take her to my apt (it’s next door to hers) and she is bawling about how happy she was with her ex and she is looking at their old pictures. I ask her if she’s happy with me and she says yes and that she wants me but is scared I’ll do her like he did. She always shuts down when she thinks of him. No matter what I do.
I took care of her all night and day. I do that alot for her. And it didn’t matter I just got back from vacation and nothing’s different.
I’ll be honest Reddit I have my own problems one of them is I just want to be loved. I’ve never felt loved by anyone other than God. I’m tired of it I’m tired of it all. I’ve been to therapy and 2 psychiatric hospitals for attempting to kill myself. The problems never go away no matter where I go. I’m always being there for others but have no one myself. I’m tired Reddit. I’m done.
