My girlfriend and I are kind of on a break, it's funny because we have never actually fought or argued about anything. What brought about it is the fact that we are eventually going to have to go our separate ways at the end of the year when we both finish our degrees, because of the nature of work we're going to be doing and also because we both have significantly different goals to achieve. I want to take a year off to travel and do my own thing, while she wants to get straight into her career. She also can't see herself leaving Perth, while I want to.
I know it's a long way to go, but the thought has been lingering at the back of our minds for awhile now and now that she's completed a research project over summer she kinda knows where she wants to head towards. We decided to talk about it on Friday and we came to the mutual conclusion that a 'break' was for the best, but it's going to be super hard because we share almost all our classes together. The agreement was to give each other alot of space after uni and probably not see each other as much. It's just going to be a trial run.
It's only been a couple days and I feel like I've lost her already, and I know that's just in my head. And all sorts of stupid paranoid and jealous thoughts keep rushing into my brain when I know it's completely untrue. I feel like shit.
