Relationship Stress / by wierdsuperhero

...See more hey y'all i'm Going Through It as i'm sure a lot of us are. about two weeks ago my long distance girlfriend messaged me saying that we should just stay friends for now, as a lot would need to change before things could be healthy/sustainable for us and i agreed. it's a long story so i won't get too into it, but she said she doesn't wanna say we're 100% done and that she wants things to be better but she needs to see at least 6+ months of me showing improvement for her to really believe that things can be better (she also has a lot she needs to work on). thing is, she messaged me literally the next morning as if we didn't just have a conversation about breaking things off for a bit, and we've been chatting back and forth like usual since. i've been getting marginally better each day, but she's still literally all i think about and i've been having a lot of anxiety about the whole thing. it's especially bad tonight because tomorrow would have been our anniversary and i'm just not sure what i should do. it hasn't felt like much of a break with us just talking like normal minus talking about "us" or throwing in any sort of lovey/mushy stuff, and i just feel really confused and anxious. i don't want to stop talking to her or push her away, but at the same time it really just doesn't feel like a break to me, and 6 months just feels like such a long time to be in this position.
