My girlfriend and I have been together for 3 years and living together for 2. A few weeks ago she asked if we could live separately for a month because she “needed some alone time.” I asked her if she wanted to break up, but she said no.
Today, while she wasn’t home, I needed a suitcase for a meeting. I rarely use luggage, so I grabbed a random one. When I opened it, I found a gift bag inside with a plushie and a writing on the bag that said:
you had me at hello
”I LOVE YOU” “I KNOW”
I’m almost certain it’s not for me. I’ve never seen the movie the character is from, and she knows that. It doesn’t make sense that it’s from a friend either, as she wouldn’t hide it from me.
Combined with her wanting space out of nowhere, my mind is going to dark places. But at the same time, I don’t know if this is enough to confront her about cheating. Part of me wants to wait until Christmas to see if she gives it to me, but I honestly don’t think I can pretend nothing’s wrong for that long.
I don’t want to accuse her unfairly, but I’m really confused and anxious. How do I even bring this up?
