What should you do if you just came back from a month-long army training and your girlfriend of two years said she wants and indefinite break?

Answer 1

Let her go...if you just returned and she wants 'a break' I get the idea she may have found another person to spend the break with. It hurts like hell, I truly know, but better to move on and meet some new ladies than wait for her when the chances are she will only want another break later; possibly after you two have commited yourselves to each other. I wish I had taken my own advice. He wasn't a bad guy, I just couldn't admit he was ready to move on. Good luck, and as my last word of advice, holding a resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other guy to die. Keep your chin up and you'll be way ahead of the pack! ---- Totally agree, most likely she found someone else while you were gone and want to explore that relationship. If she is willing to do it once, she would do it again. When she comes back, she will come back, don't take her back. Thanks for the help so far. I think it might help to add she has said that another guy isn't the reason and I mostly believe her. She said more specifically that the fact she got to hang out with her friends again, as she is usually really busy with school or work, was the main reason. She said we spent too much time together and she just needs a break to be figure things out. One other note, nost of her friends were my close friends too but almost all of them would chose her over me if it came down to it since they are mostly her friends from high school and such.
