Alright so before I start to explain the situation, it is about a failing relationship. I would suggest if you don't want to read a wall of text about me, her and the problem, this isn't the thread for you to help with... Here goes:
Me: So I'm about 2-3 months younger than her. I tend to be good at Math, Science and Computer Science. I've had 3 girlfriends before her, and I've learned what girls like to hear and I can make a girl happy pretty well when I am dating them. I basically try and make my girlfriend as happy as I can, and I am the sweetest guy I can be whenever I'm with her- no matter who is around.
Her: She's the same age as me, but 2-3 months older. She had an abusive relationship a few years ago, and she has had trust issues with any guy that has entered her life ever since then. She has a best friend whom she tells everything. She had a thing with a guy before our relationship. She is an amazing girlfriend in every aspect except for the times when she gets a little flirty with other guys. Even though we've been dating for 3-4 months, I am crazy over her. I screwed up terribly.
Situation: We've fought a few times. We've almost ended it on some occasions when issues came up. She used to be scared of our relationship because of the fact that she told me I would have a rough time gaining her trust. I said I would accept the challenge and did so in about a fourth of what she estimated as the minimum. We've been going strong, but one day, we were hanging out and she had a major mood swing. We both said a few things and I said I wanted to end it. She spent about an hour trying to convince me not to. I told her I would talk to her if she called later that night about it, and I stepped out of the car. She ended up skyping me and her eyes were bloodshot and puffy.
I know I took it too far. The problem is, she started accepting the fact that we were done by the time she got home. Her family isn't very fond of me either anymore. We both agreed to give it a chance, but she isn't acting the same. We don't text or talk, for that matter, nearly as much as we used to. I hurt her severely and I don't know what to do. I want to make it up to her, but I don't know how. Last night I sat in bed until 1-2 AM thinking about what I did. Every one of the songs that reminds me of her hits me and makes me feel terrible that I practically destroyed my relationship that I care so much about...
I feel like a huge failure, and I want to keep her. Does anyone have any ways that I can make this up to her? I am hanging out with her tomorrow after our AP exam. Right now, I am planning on having some roses and giving a real apology. I don't know what else to do this time. Can anyone help?
Thanks everyone!
