You are being so overdramatic and whiney.No, I'm really unhappy. I want my girlfriend back.
So why are you being mean to her?
Because being nice didn't work.
Maybe you didn't give it long enough. You're too impatient.
But I was unhappy.
So now you feel the need to make her unhappy too?
Yes. I don't want to be in a relationship where I give and give and don't get what I need back. I've been telling her how to make me happy for weeks and I haven't gotten anything out of it.
Maybe you just weren't very receptive.
Maybe. But when all I really want is an email more personal than one she'd send to her little sister, is that really too much?
Maybe. She said she needs space. Maybe that's part of the space she needs. Why don't you just get over yourself and take what she gives you at face value?
Because I want more. I want my Kablooey back.
But you can't have that, so get over it.
But I don't want to get over her. I want to be with her.
But you can't so get over it. Damn, you're a whiny bitch.
What if I move on and then she wants to be together again? Will I still be able to do that?
Don't know. Guess you'll have to see when the time comes.
She still wants to talk to me everyday. How do I open up shop for that one part and close down for all the rest?
I'm not telling you to close down. I'm telling you to get over yourself. She's doing what makes her happy, so you go do what makes you happy.
Being with her makes me happy.
But there are other things. Find them. She'll still be inside you, right?
I don't know. If I move on and have fun without wishing she was there or that I could talk to her about it, maybe that means she's not in that place anymore. And I have to decide if that's ok. If I'm willing to wait and freeze my life and how I feel about her, or to let go of her.
You have to let go. If you don't, you're just going to end up hurting everyone more.
In order to do that, I think I have to lose contact with her, at least for awhile. She won't like that.
Well, do you think she'd prefer that you lash out at her everyday?
Not really.
