My girlfriend just lost her job (circuit city closed) and she's really stressed out about it. She's worried about money, and everything. She has told me that she gives everyone attitude when she's stressed out but doesn't mean to. It just comes out. I have tried to be there for her by doing everything, to reassure her that I'm not going anywhere. Now she told me that she needs a break from the relationship. She says she can't stand me right now and everything. Does this mean its over?

Does this mean its over?

No I don't think she means its over. Often when women are going through such tremendous amounts of stress they think it's the right thing to do breaking up with the one they love so they don't end up hurting them by taking out her anger and distress on them.
You should just give her some time to sort her life out, it's the best thing you can do for her at this moment. Then maybe you and her can be together again sometime.
I wish you the best of luck with this problem.

Sincerely,
Ben

It doesn't mean the relationship is completely over, but not to make you more stress out over this issue, sometimes the relationship doesn't pick back up.

With everything that is going on with your girlfriend she does needs her space to sort things out because no matter what you say or do at the moment it won't make a diffrence. Her anger towards you would only expand and in the end it could only make you represent her if things contionue the way there are.

You can give her space and still be there for her at the same time.
