We're on a break but it feels like she already decided to end it
Relationship Stress / by fraisesaumiel

...See more My partner and I have only been in a relationship for over 6 months. The first few months were the happiest we've been however even during those times, the stress from her work and family overwhelms her and she sometimes shut down on me, sees every little mistakes I make and criticize my every move that I became too conscious on how I act towards her when we're together. We somehow able to get past it although the next couple of months were still a bit shaky. We celebrated our 6th month together, all was good but then 2 weeks ago, she started to get stress with work again and her issue with her brother, for the last week we were together, she barely talked to me and I'm at fault too since I didn't reach out to her, we were total opposites, she's the outgoing type and I'm the quiet one so when she started to ignore me and barely talks to me, I got worried that we're back again to how it was before. I got sick a day before I left to stay with my family, I felt like she got annoyed with me more since she doesn't want another person to take care of, she always tells me whenever we had this kind of problem in our relationship, that she didn't get a partner, more like she got a child to take care of, that I'm not the same person that she knew, and I apologize to her for my shortcomings, she asked for a break and wants time before we talk about our relationship cause she have other more important things to worry about like her work and kids, and I get that, I accepted the fact that I could never be her priority, I always tell her that her kids should always comes first, she apologized to me as well, telling me that she's not okay and doesn't want to think about our relationship first, so I agreed on the break she wanted, I messaged her maybe once after that talk, like a last message before we officially take a break from the relationship, but then that night she wanted to talk because of her problems with her brother, so we did, she got a bit better the next morning, and she still wants to continue the break and doesn't want to talk about our relationship yet, so i respected that and told her that I'll give her the time and space she needs, we still check on each other however the way she replies to me feels like she already has fallen out of love and no longer wants to continue what we have, i still tell her i love her every day and that i appreciate her, she would normally okay or thank you, and that was painful as hell, I asked her if its better that I don't message her at all but she said it was okay and that she was just trying to keep herself busy and that she hopes I understand, I said I do, its been almost a week that we're on this so called break, and I feel like a doormat, it feels like she just doesn't really care anymore about me and just trying to soften the blow of a breakup, she said we'll talk soon but I don't know how long I can take, or if I would still ask for us to fix it, or just accept it if she wants to end our relationship. I have no one else to talk to, my family nor my friends doesn't know, so its a lot more difficult for me, but I don't want to leave her knowing that she gets easily overwhelmed with stress and problems, i still love her but I don't know how long I can last with this break we have.
