My girlfriend of three years dropped the bomb 3 weeks ago -'love you but not in love'/ 'no passion' and she said she wanted a 'break' and that perhaps we had to 'start again'.
I immediately went dark and didn't make any contact. A week and a half later she left a very sheepish message asking if I was OK. A day later I was going to call her back - then she left another message saying she heard I was sick and wanting to know if I was OK. I left a message and she called me the next morning.
I kept the chat nice and light, no R talk, made her laugh and made sure I got off the phone first. I told her I went to see a film – and she even wanted to know who I went with – your ‘new girlfriend’ she joked. We sort of left it at 'well call me if you want to chat.' And she said the same to me.
The next day I had to travel interstate which she didn’t know about.
Now my emotions are getting on top of me a bit. It’s been six days again since any contact.
I’m feeling funny now about staying dark – even though we had that conversation which did ‘lighten’ things up a bit. Should I lighten up more?
We were meant to be going to a friend’s wedding this weekend which I will be back in time for – but she hasn’t said anything about it since (she’s in the wedding party)
So my question – should I ring her nice and casually? Tell her I’m interstate and that I’ll be back on Fri – and see if she brings up the wedding and wants me to go?
Or should I not ring her and just sit tight and wait for her to call - or is that 'too dark'?
