    My neediness is pushing her away?
    Ok I had another post on her about my girlfriend asking for space and then a break up.
    For our 5 year 11 month relationship I treated her second most of the time. I wouldn't answer her calls, not because I didn't love her, but because I didn't feel like talking to her and I know I could call her whenever I wanted and she would answer. She would complain about something and I would say you don't like it? Break up with me. She said no I don't want to. I would then ask then why do you stay with me she say I have hope you will improve. I went out while she stayed in her home. I constantly accused her of cheating even though I knew she wasn't. Everything she said I analyzed and made her feel like a bad person even though she was a saint. Basically what made me act this way was her neediness and availability, it made it so easy for me to do what ever I wanted and I always knew she would be there.

    Then everything changed.

    One day she didn't answer my text message for a while and we always texted in the morning to say hi. So finally after 3 hours I got a message hi. I got pissed I said a few things in the message and then I told her I cheated on her last year to get her mad. I only said that to get her mad and I convinced her it was a lie. Usually when I say something like that she brushes it off and ignores it. This time I hurt her and she said I want to break up and I don't like you anymore. We fought and she apologized but I begged her and I almost cried when I was on the phone with her. This was the first time I begged her for forgiveness usually she says you cheated on me fine bye. I hang up and we don't call each other for a few hours. That time I begged I don't know why but I did. Now ever since then I have been asking her are you happy and how do you feel about us and questions like that. Now I I do one thing wrong she comes at me and say I don't like you and I beg again I can't help it now.

    Now I am the needy one and she is treating me like crap. I want the relationship at an equilibrium but I think my neediness is making it hard for her to see how much she likes me, because that is exactly what happened to me. I constantly ask her does she love me and I constantly talk about marriage and I'm god damn pathetic I look like such a wimp. I used to be confident now I do everything she says and I can't see how she can possibly like me like this!! 11

    For instance before things swapped she would have to beg me to come to her house now I volunteer to go over there. Like today I asked her if I could pick her up from work. I am making this really easy for her I have to become less perdictable and more independent

    3 hours is nothing. What's the matter with oyu.

    You're getting gmad because she won't respond - be busy wit hother things in life and she won't matter as much.

    You put too much importance she will run.


    Hang with your friends - go to the gym. Work harder at work.

    Go a couplde days without contact.

    You treated her pretty badly and now your mad because you treated her badly and she didn't go for the begging routine to get back in good graces. I don't know what you expect from her but I think you got what you deserved. Its up to you to stop the begging and whining.

    I'm with Tal here. You got exactly what you deserved. I don't blame her for pulling the plug on you, and I don't feel one bit sorry for you. I hope you learn the right lesson from this experience: It's known as the Golden Rule--treat others as you would like to be treated.
