Okay. Here goes:
I've been diagnosed with a serious liver-related problem since February 15th. To that effect everything's been very disorganized, and grim. Haven't been to work for the past two weeks. In bed almost all the while. The only good thing going for me was my girlfriend of two years, who's been taking care of me.
However, everything changed. Her ex-boyfriend had been calling her since December of last year, and they've been talking as "friends" since then. He came back from London four weeks back, and since then, they've reignited their "friendship" if you will. Dinner, ice-cream, long drives, breakfast, brunch... they've done it all.
Still, I trusted her, and refrained from the confrontation which was sure to take place sooner or later. I concentrated on my deteriorating health, and regularly visited the doctor without her, as she'd be busy with work, or have errands to run.
Slowly, we began to have fights. Arguments which we never had. I learned new facts about her Ex, and how he was prepared to commit to her, and how he still loves her even after years of staying apart. Then, as is always the case, my sincerity was called into question, and obviously the matter of how he loved her for her heart, and I was only interested in sex... etc.
I tried to explain, and managed to convince her that I loved her, and that we could work through it. She then declared her love for me, and said that I was the only guy in her life.
That's dandy, right? Well, I thought so too. But...
Four days ago she calls me and says that she's going out of town (to Florida) to clear her head. I told her to do whatever was best for her. She left that same day. Then, a common friend told me that my girlfriend had gone there to attend the wedding of her Ex's brother.
Far away from home. With her Ex. Not telling me the truth.
She doesn't answer my calls, or reply to my texts. I get a message a day, like, "Fine. Call you when I can." etc.
She's still not back yet. But when she does, I need to know the truth about what's going on... but my health is in such a state that I can't take an emotional battering right now. It's tearing me apart. Paranoia, jealousy, betrayal... I can't handle it.
Thoughts?
