Had a big fight with the girlfriend a few days ago.
It was my fault but it was a kind of continuation of a disagreement we had had previously.
I had made plans with a few mates on the Friday before Valentine's day to go for drinks. So I told her she should do something similar and then we'd meet after. She took that to mean go clubbing with her friends. I felt that was a bit disrespectful - clubbing on V day weekend with a bunch of single girls. We had a mini break up but then I let it slide the morning after.
Then we get into another argument on Monday. I don't hear from her all day. The next day I converse with her and she basically tells me she assumes we're broken up and that she doesn't want to be with me anymore because I don't treat her well. I "convince" her to stay together, but I get this weird feeling in my stomach, because a part of me knows that I'm losing the frame here.
Same thing happens on Wednesday - she gets angry over a non issue (I had planned to go for drinks with a girl from work since my gf had "dumped" me) and says we can't be together. I convince her again and we patch things up.
Anyway I can sense an obvious pattern and know the writing is on the wall but honestly have too much other stressful stuff going on in my life to be able to cope with a straight break up right now. How should I proceed?
