Hi guys, I'm in a bit of a bad place right now. Pretty upset. I suppose it would be a good idea to tell you a little about our past:
We got together when she was 14 and I was 16, both very young. About a year give or take later we lost our virginity to each other. Everything at this stage was really great and we were both really happy with the relationship. Another year went on and I began to have my doubts about my own feelings etc and 6 months after that I broke up with her, not really knowing what I was doing to be honest. A couple of days after that I began to regret it and she begged me back. Things were going smoothly and my feelings returned for her and everything has been pretty good with the odd little fight here and there. I'll admit there were times where I didn't treat her the best and she didn't treat me the best. But we have both learned a lot in the time we have been together and we have both certainly improved in that area.
About a month ago she broke up with me, mainly because she didn't think I loved her and she wasn't 100% sure on her feelings and if it felt right, I pretty much begged her back and promised her that I would show more affection etc, and I have. 2 weeks ago I took her to Sydney for a weeks holiday and we both had a great time, since then we haven't seen each other, the first week was just to have some space after being together for a week and everything seemed fine.. The 2nd week she said don't worry about coming and I assumed she was just being nice to let me have a weekend to myself. I do enjoy my own space, (and she knows that) so I thought nothing of it.
On Monday she spilled the beans and told me that she wasn't sure about her feelings towards me anymore and that she still loves me a lot but isn't sure if her feelings are going to come back or what her feelings even are. I've of course recently gotten much stronger feelings for her. Which is proof feelings do come and go in long term relationships.
On Tuesday she asked me if I was okay with having 1 week of no communication and I agreed to it. It's now day two and to be honest I'm not doing so great. I'd just really love to drive down there and see her but from what I've read on this forum about others in this situation it's best to respect what she wants and hope for the best but expect the worst.
I have real feelings for this girl and I believe what we have is pretty special and I think she knows that too. I love spending time with her and although our relationship has never been perfect I don't think any relationship ever is 100%. She told me on Tuesday that if she didn't have any feelings that she would have ended it on the spot then. So I'm honestly a bit of a mess right now, I want to be hopeful.. But from what I've read things don't usually go well from here.
I broke her necklace by accident during our Holiday and today I went to town and got her a replacement. I was thinking about driving down and giving it to her with some chocolates or flowers either this weekend or after the NC is over. Would it be a good idea to do that on the weekend? That would be 4 days of NC then. I kind of want to make a good impression and show her I care, but at the same time I don't want to annoy her.
Do you think I should do it anyway? Or would it do more harm than good? Is there anything I can do?
Thanks!
