We dated for just short of 3 years. I was her first real boyfriend, she was my first real girlfriend. we shared a lot of firsts together. Our differing political views somewhat drove us apart. She held on to hope for a long time for us. I struggle with Covert Incest, which makes it hard for me to by consistently affectionate and show love because I fear being hurt and abandoned. She also has been very depressed and has a hard time getting/keeping a job. I did love her and made sure she got things that were important to her. Some other guy sent her DMs on her Instagram months ago. She ended up choosing me, but 5 months later she "needs something different" and told me she's trying to be his friend. We acknowledge that we still deeply love each other, but she needs to check out other options. We say we both want to reconnect in the future but nothing is certain. I give my hope to God that we will reconcile one day. And in the meantime I'll do my best to change so I can open my heart and sustain true love.

have you been dropping hints to test the waters at all, or has this gut feeling completely caught you off guard?
