Comment a number between 1-50 and I’ll ask you a question 🙃

@SW-User are you in a relationship?

@Stark it’s complicated 😣 technically yes I think I have a girlfriend but we had a big argument the other day and it’s kinda not totally resolved. I’m hoping she’ll forgive me but just have to wait and see.

@SW-User Aw, does she need space or you guys just avoiding the whole ordeal?

@Stark I’m trying to give her space but also I hate the silence. I had a bad mental health day and lashed out at her, she’s basically sick of it happening. Her words were “every time you have a bad day you treat me like shit and then think you can just say sorry and forget about it, and I’m just meant to take it”. I can only apologise, I can’t go back in time so either she accepts this about me and we try and work through it, or she’s done

@SW-User Ah, I see. I can be a bit similar when in relationships not exactly in that sense, but either way it did take someone telling me that I have to be accountable for how I react even when I’m not in the best state of mind. And that could be something as simple as stating, that you’re having a moment and you may need space because you’re aware that when you have those moments you’re probably not the best to be around. And in order to save the relationships in your life you have to be able to take responsibility for your emotions. We’re human and we’re not going to always be a 100% so I think when we realize that and become self aware of that we’re able to have healthy relationships with the people we care about and at the same learn more about ourselves and what we need to do in order to self soothe and take care of ourselves in the best way way can. I agree you can’t go back in time and fix what has already happened, but if you still want her to be in your life you should reach out to her, take accountability, be vulnerable and open about your emotions and how you feel and also devise a plan on what you’re going to do to prevent this behavior. You have to work towards healing, because you don’t want the people in your life to endure that type of treatment ❤️‍🩹

@Stark yea, the annoying thing is that I am quite self aware and I used to do that and she hated that I pushed her away. She said she wanted to be there in the good times and the bad…and now she says this. I can’t win. I think what she wants is me not to have mental health issues but that’s not going to happen. I keep reaching out and we managed to sit and talk on Tuesday and then she said give her time to think. So I’m trying to give her space. I’m no good at this stuff…all I know is that I love her and don’t want to lose her

@SW-User People always claim to want to be there for the good and the bad but don’t truly mean it. 🤦‍♀️ I do hope the best for you and her.
