Waiting period
Relationship Stress / by sylvetrica23

...See more My ex and I have only been separated for about a week. She asked for space but said we could talk after the holidays so I’ve been respecting her space but the waiting period really sucks. I’m trying to focus on myself and actively working to improve how I was dealing with and processing things since that’s where some issues came from, but I still want to get back with her and not knowing how she feels is draining.

How to be more positive
Relationship Stress / by sylvetrica23

...See more My girlfriend and I broke up this morning. It was her decision. She said it was due to my general negative outlook on things without positivity or solutions being sought out. This is something I know I struggle with and unless I’m actively and solely making that the focus of my life then I always slip eventually and drop off into the negativity again without meaning to. I’d like to change this about myself to where being more positive and having a better outlook on things comes naturally rather than the opposite before trying things with her again. She has a couple things to work on on her own too but this is my problem and even if I don’t wind up getting back with her I’d really like to adjust this behavior and have a better chance at this not effecting future relationships in the same way, as she it’s the only partner to have expressed my negativity weighs on them in this way.
