It may be too difficult for her to "get over" your past.. She sounds like she has low self-esteem plus her values may just be different than yours so she is not able to just foget your past & proceed.
You are young & this may sound harsh, but is this what you want to envision for your future? I've been together with my husband since we were teenagers & I had my first suicide attempt at 15. I've had professional help--medication & therapy--but the disorder still persists to some degree & can surface again very strongly (which fo r me lead to overdoses). He has stuck with me, but in his heart of hearts, if he could see the future he would not choose t go down this road with me.
Think about if you are willing & able to stay with her if she doesn't get better & maybe even gets worse.--Suzy
