Background: we met during nursing school and had a very rocky start. It was her first relationship ever, and wasn’t fond of falling under the “not straight” umbrella. Very private, not affectionate in public at all, and if you’re not her brother or her BFF she will deny that she’s “not straight” . So I know right away there were tons of red flags. I ended up falling for her and would adapt to not being public about our relationship. She lived a very antisocial life and she comes off as not empathetic ( yes she’s nurse go figure). Smart but the social aspect is not what you would expect from a nurse ( which she has confessed to me many times that nursing is beneath her,THAT is a whole other story).

So I don’t know if that’s her subtle way of saying hey I don’t see you in my future so let’s dissipate? It’s one of those relationships that you know it’s going to end badly unless the other person does a drastic change but you stick around because you can see a potential? That’s how I have carried on for the last 3 years. What do I do?

I’m (26f) at a loss rn.
