So two months ago I met this incredible woman, she made me feel more seen and understood than anyone else has in a very long time. Unfortunately she called things off. It was an out of the blue and i genuinely did not see it coming. Her two main reasons were nursing school is way too demanding and her feeling like i wasn't taking enough interest in her life. I was absolutely infatuated with her and it's killing me knowing i made her feel like i wasn't interested in her life achievements and stuff. I think i was just so excited to share with her about my stuff i may have rushed over her things she was sharing. And her not feeling heard was a trigger. I am devastated by her pulling away honestly and even if this relationship isn't salvageable, i need to learn how to hold space for my partner to make them feel more heard because thinking back ive had other people call it off for similar reasons. How do i become a better listener i thought i was doing a good job being an attentive partner but that's not the case and it's definitely an area i could work on.
