Girlfriend wants a break?

[drumer_046]

Basically,
my girlfriend's parents are fed up with her brother taking her out of school, her not doing well in school, and because they lie to them sometimes.

My girlfriend and I have been dating for about two months, we're eachothers firsts, and care about eachother a lot. We hang out almost every day, and do whatever.

So two days ago, my girlfriend got caught lying to her parents and is basically in the most trouble that she's been in. Her parents have never been this mad. They've taken her phone, internet, and are watching her 24/7 for two weeks.

Today we talked, only because I saw her at lunch (I went onto the school campus when I do not belong to that school), and she said that she wants to take a break until everything clears up.

Should I just take this short break? Completely break it off? Or keep trying to fight for us to stay together?
She said that she just wants a short break simply because her family is ripping apart. But I've never had a break and they seem weird :\

How old are both of you? Cause to be honest, 2 months is not long at all. I assume both of you are still in High School? You should definitely give it more time before you decide if this girl is your absolute soul mate or something like that. She has family problems, let her deal with them. Be her friend and listen to what she has to say, and talk to her about it. Don't try to pry, but ask and let her know you care. You should come back with an update when everything is done with her family situation, and all that jazz

Move on. If she truly liked you and cared about you, she would want you to be with her during this hard time in her life. Find a girl that goes to your school or just take things slow and maybe take a small break from dating.

That's a valid point of view but not always true

If she sincerely asked for the break you should give it to her, let her deal the things she want to deal alone, alone. If she wants to go back she will, otherwise, maybe the relation wasn't enough to be mixed with her life.

I think that in this case, a break is completely justifiable. I don't think it has anything whatsoever with your girlfriend wanting to be apart from you, but rather your girlfriend wanting to focus on the priorities that her family has set for her, and to ensure she can please her parents and mend the tension that is going on in her home and personal life.

Also, talk to your girlfriend about what she means about that. Because although technically it is "a break", she might just mean that for a couple of weeks she wants some space to herself so that she can focus on her family and getting herself out of trouble. It would be very disrespectful for you not to agree with her, and you could possibly get her in even more trouble if your always calling/showing up at her house and school etc. when her parents wish her to be inside studying, attending classes, staying off the phone and internet.

It really sucks when your that young and your parents try to dominate every aspect of your life. I remember being that age and having constant full out WAR with my parents. But honestly, talk to your girl bro and whatever she decides, try to respect her wishes and help her get through this. It sounds like shes having a hard time right now and she probably needs you there to support her, not harrass her and annoy her.

I honestly don't see why people need breaks, you're either in a relationship for the long haul or not at all. Why would she want to be in and out of a relationship? That's not how it's supposed to work, she's supposed to want to be with you unconditionally, especially since she's going through a rough patch, she should want you to comfort her, if she really cared about you.

Eh, can you verify that she actually got in trouble? Seems odd that she gets in trouble and just can't do anything for two weeks!, then wants a break.


I mean if she really is in trouble, then yeah, take a break and see if you still like eachother when she's out of trouble.

And seriously bro, stop going on a school campus where your now allowed. You'll be in deep crap if they if they find out.

If you break "completely" by not even talking to her, your relationship is over.
Don't forget to talk to her now and then so that she doesn't forget that you were such a great guy.

Seriously. Women will forget something unless you constantly remind them. Love for a man is not an exception.
