You know, some days I really believe that is true.

OMG HER FACE!
By the way, the "rules" about e-mail only and no face-to-face and no phone calls are just lame. There's no way I would settle for anything less than a phone call if I were in your shoes. In my opinion, she is being extremely disrepectful to demand only e-mails to from you. I understand that she is trying to avoid a horrible fight or something along those lines but guess what? A 8 year relationship can't be ended as cleanly as a netflix subscription.
worst ... pics ... ever
what's wrong with giving her space ? Even if she is using this time to figure things out (another guy, etc.) it is still her will to do so. It won't benefit you either way so give her the space she wants. I think you need some time to step further back too. Go out with others - try a fresh start. There's a lot of cliches that would fit perfectly here but what matters is that she's in the driver's seat and you should sit back till she makes a decision for the both of you.Originally posted by: Slappy00

If you read more of the posts here you would realize that most of us are thinking that you are completely wrapped up in this and have very little else going for you. In all seriousness- get out of the house, waiting for her e-mail and get a life.
So you're posting her e-mail? Quite pathetic.
Your life should not be based around one person, or two, but a much larger number.Originally posted by: Slappy00

I am getting out of the house, I'm not sitting at home lamenting anymore, I have friends and family that I am hanging out with as well as other interests that I am persuing. Getting a life is what I intend to do, as a matter of fact, unfortuneatly it might have to be by myself. You see my "life" was based around two people not one, there are a lot of changes to be made and its not easy. Live a certian way for 8 or nine years and then suddenly change the whole situation, and see if its so easy to "get a life".
So you're posting her e-mail? Quite pathetic.
Not the whole thing, just a few small parts that kind of confuse me, It's hard to understand someone's intentions when you have practically a decade of bias hanging over your head. The more personal parts were left out of course.

So I got an e-mail from her today, although most of it is kinda too personal to post here I can put some relevant pieces up:
As I look at the situation, I wonder if I?m being honest and seeing things for what they really are, if I have that single-mindedness or if I?m caught up in the peripheral debris, busy swatting flies in the kitchen while the house burns down?.
Which is another reason why I appreciate the time apart. This is time to find that focus again after trying new things and tapping in to new sources of strength and inspiration. I am not trying to prolong our break-up or cause a bigger schism for us to repair if we are going to get back together. I am not trying to cause more pain; I simply am exhausted and need time & space to heal & rejuvenate.
Other than that she is planning on writing me letters and what not... I don't get it anymore whats going on?
