split up

I posted a while ago about introducing my gf to my parents. I finally did and everything went great. However, I guess the age thing was eating her up inside and everything kind of blew up in my face. She just out of the blue said she can't take the feeling of being judged by other people and saying that she is holding me back from my true potential etc etc. She doesn't get that I derive a lot of motivation and inspiration to succeed from her. It's really heartbreaking since we've been talking about marriage and children and having a life together for a long time and now these insecurities have surfaced. I know I can't be selfish and get her to change her mind (which I think I could) since I don't want her to be with me if she feels bad about it. And then it kind of crushes me to think that she just gave up on us like that.

I don't now I'm just trying to process my feelings. As frustrated, sad and mad as I am, I just hope she is okay

Sounds like she like the idea of the relationship more than the actual relationship. She has some issues of her own to contend with, I would say a separation might be a good idea.

If you love someone you let them go, if they love you they come back. Hang in there there are brighter days ahead.
