this is where you have to make a choice. you can decide to let this affect you and go off the deep end into a hole and let the emotions wash over you.

OR

you can let her go. and let someone who deserves your love and compassion and commitment come in and take her place. they can't be with you as long as she's in the way. remember that.

i know this is easier said than done, but i wanted you to at least have this to hold on to when it gets really hard. ::hugs::

be strong. call a friend, let it all out. but don't show her how this is affecting you. that could ruin anything that might come later when she's all grown up and out of this phase of her life. who knows, maybe you just aren't meant to be together right now. maybe in the future it would work out better. but if you burn this bridge now with a breakdown that will never be a possibility.

I really appreciate your reply and I'll certainly think this through.

We've haven't talked for over 26 hours. We had a very intense argument yesterday and since then we've been ignoring eachother. And I won't contact her, I am testing her. I want her to show me that she cares about me.
But it's hard. I know she's hanging out with somebody else right now and I don't know what they're doing. She hasn't been online for a while, what if she's cheating on me? I was able to deal with it throughout the day, I had intense moodswings, but it was managable. Now the fear is getting worse and worse, it's overwhelming me right now..

I am not sure if I can leave her..tbh, I think I can't. I am not emotionally capable of doing that. Cutting her off would destroy me.. (and her probably aswell)

If you're interested in the details (I don't want to make them public, paranoid and all), you can PM me if you want. I appreciate any advice people from the outside can give me concerning this.
