GF of 3 years had been distant over the past 2 weeks, replying slowly over texts when she used to reply fast so the other day I got tired of it and just straight up ignored her all day. and now we're on a freeze out with neither one of us willing to text the other.
what do I do from here? I really wanna break up with her over this behavior but at the same time I want it to work out. any advice?
Who knows what your situation is or if you may've caused a problem. If you didn't and she's just ready to slowly move on? Instead of playing "freeze out text tag" like an insecure kid call her like a man and see what the issue is. If she never responds or refuses to address the issue, or has had many other relationship deal breaker red flags then you just leave. Period. As in no calls, text, email. Just drop it and move on. Again. No calls, text, emails, FB, Social media spying. Nothing. No excuses for her.
That IS if you are 100% sure you aren't a part of the problem or why she's growing distant and she's never had any major red flags. You have to talk to her on the phone first or in person. If she still plays this passive aggressive ignore nonsense you don't play it along with her. You get over your insecurity of being alone and move on.
If she is the problem and you continue to be a willing "victim" to nonsense then YOU are your own problem and need to realize you can't control her, can't live vicariously through someone else or go insane over what she's going to do.
Call her and talk. She doesn't call back and continues to ignore? Drop everything connected to her and move on. Learn and grow from the experience. Reflect internally on things you may've done wrong and look to correct them with the next person you meet. Positive, learning and growing forward. If you cannot be honest with yourself you cannot expect honesty from others.
