They've been together for three months and it's been pretty tough for me to realize the progression of her being in a relationship. They went away together for 4th of July weekend and she stayed with him until Wednesday when she left for a trip.
She tried for a while to work things out. We went to counseling and a couples workshop. And I would try for a while and then slip back into depression and kept pushing her away- only I didn't realize that this was what was happening. Eventually she stopped trying and by the time I realized what was going on with me and wanted to work it out, she was done.
