I've been in a great relationship for 9 months now, and words cannot express my love for this girl. We've been through alot in our short amount of time together (mostly dealing with self esteem issues that she has), and we always take to the time to talk to one another if things seem to be going badly. But lately, I've been feeling alone. I go out of my way to please my girlfriend, to make her feel wanted, but it seems that it does nothing. This feeling of being singular in a relationship is not one of greatness. It seems to have hit a climactic point this weekend.

I told her that I had been feeling alone and I felt as if the depression was oncoming again (I had battled this before, but it has disapeared for awhile). She took it quite badly, almost as if I blamed her for it. I know, and I'm sure other people on this board believe me when I say that it's not her fault. But she seems to not understand that. Instead, she is shutting me out, not letting me see her when I beg to talk with her about this. It's almost as if I have to defend my feelings towards her, because she feels they are "wrong."

I have no idea what to do. I want her to help me, but she doesn't seem to want to. This is tearing me up inside.
