My girlfriend broke up with her primary partner back in November. She’s finally moved into her own place and is doing really well living on her own! Something I’m struggling with is she mentioned that if her ex gets their mental health taken care of and gets better, she wants to get back together. This really hurt cause I think our relationship is a million times more fulfilling. We sexually are compatible, see eye to eye on a lot of things, and overall just have a great connection.

Her relationship with her previous partner wasn’t sexual at all and they didn’t super compatible on a lot of things. They had been together for a decade, having started dating in high school. My girlfriend needed the break up since her previous partner was draining her emotionally and mentally.

How do I navigate this? Do I trust that my relationship with her isn’t going to be jeopardized? Do I stay strong in the fact we have a great connection and are sexually so compatible it’s addicting?
