1. I need my space or I have to focus on me for a while.
There is of course more than one reason your girlfriend my have said this to you. First it may be a polite way to let you go or it may be that she really does need some space, which may or may not be because of you. I know it may be hard to swallow the first reason, yet sometimes two people are just too different to make a life together. It doesn’t necessarily mean you did anything wrong, still in the long run she feels things are not going to be permanent, so she has decided to take the step and move on.

What is your general perspective of them? It’s important to know there is more to your relationship than just being able to hang out and have fun. Understanding there are certain qualities in a person you are attracted to is a good way to start. For instance, you may want your partner to be a hard worker. First, because you don’t want to be the one doing all the work, making all the money, doing all the chores and carrying all the responsibilities. Secondly you may want to know they have determination that will help encourage you to do more in life, making the goals with an actual possibility of achieving them.

You may think you have let go of you past because you never bring it up when you are with her, but this is not actually letting go of it. I have found myself in more than one relationship that I had to live with the feeling that I was never going to be that girl. I was never going to be the love of his life.

If you are not able to leave your past in the past, it is not wise for you to enter into another relationship, although it happens all the time, in my opinion the results are not usually

    “Congratulations!!” read one post on a friend’s Facebook wall, the day after she landed an office job in her field. “So amazing!” read another. “Are you ready for your big-girl job?” asked a third well-wisher, accompanied by a GIF of Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope. “I can’t believe I finally have a real job” was the text she sent me a few days later, from the comfort of her desk, where she had been hired to do operations work for an organization she had once, a few years prior, interned for.…

    Respecting myself is what I consider to be one of my defining characteristics, so when I heard one of my male cross country teammates saying offensive things about me and my female teammates, I had to say something. At this time four out of the six girls on my team were dealing with some type of injury. Problems with our hips, knees, and ankles were some of the issues we were dealing with. This particular male teammate was saying things like, “Our girls team is really slacking right now.” In addition, he was mocking us by saying, “I can’t go to practice today because I have a hangnail.”…

    We also need to be honest with one another and not hide things so that problems do not keep building up or to keep things inside of us until the point where we let it all out and things can get destructive. Self-disclosure is important to develop a close relationship and being true to yourself helps build an honest relationship. So being honest and true with one another and being willing to self-disclose our inner feelings, thoughts, opinions, and ambitions is key to keeping the relationship healthy and alive. We also need to avoid using media to communicate about any problems we have and to rely on synchronous communication such as talking face to face about any personal…

    When we were announced to break into two groups, those that feel privileged and those that feel non-privileged. In those few seconds, I knew we were going to be split up into girls and boys, however, I felt more accustomed to going with the guys then the girls, yet I stayed. It felt weird to say we were the oppressed group because we are women, yet I never felt that until I got into college. I never had to think about being a woman, only at times did I ask myself why was I born a woman. I think I felt weird due to being the oldest in my family, my family consists of my parents, my younger sisters and I.…
