Im at a stage rn where I need to get my stuff together and focus on my self and my own well being but I don’t want my girlfriend to feel neglected or that I don’t care about her the same anymore and want to show her some attention and affection still

Hey @Tdb55, welcome to the community.

I hear you're feeling stuck about wanting to focus on yourself and at the same time to not make your partner feel neglected, that's quite thoughtful of you, I must say.

Relationships indeed can be a lot of work, but it is not uncommon for people to focus on their own lives individually, working on their dreams and aspirations and simultaneously being in a healthy, committed, strong relationship, it's definitely a two people's job and lots of it can be achieved by being on the same page of things, for instance getting your partner onboard with having a life of own, working on self and being with each other sharing the love and relationship. It's alot of prioritizing effectively, and time management, I'm certain you'll be able to balance both your self and the relationship, with your consistent efforts and encouragement and support of your partner too. ❤

What are your thoughts about communicating your plans about life with your partner, and assuring them how they are super valuable to you, and you'll do your best to manage it all, just with their companionship and support? 😊
