I'll start at the beginning. I met my
girlfriend through who was my best friend.
She was his girlfriend at the time but
they were having problems and he had
problems with addiction. She of course
came to me to cry on my shoulder when they
broke up 6 months ago. I fell in love
with her and her ex moved a state away.
Needless to say he is no longer my friend
and I dont want anyhing to do with him.
We grew in a relationship together and
talked about marriage etc. She was in a
constant lie with her family as to her
relationships with anyone, and who she
really is. She started to talk to her ex
again and she told me she felt sorry for
him. She lied to me and said she was
going to one place but she really went to
visit him. She came back crying to me and
saying that they are over each other and
that he just needed a friend. I found out
a couple months later that they slept
together while she was there. She is now
telling me that she has feelings for him
and she wants to move to be with him so
that she can see for herself that I am the
right person for her. I am worried for
her to say the least. I dont trust her ex
any further than I can throw him. I
finally got her to talk to her parents and
tell them everything. I even went to talk
to them after she did to make sure they
got the whole story and that they didn't
think any less of me. They were very
accepting of me and they are also worried
about her moving. We finally got her to
agree to see a counselor next week, but
she is so set on moving. She is 19 and is
so confused and as a result I am confused
as well. She suffers from self worth
problems. She was raped several years ago
and word spread around her school and she
lost her friends and her good reputation.
Now when we go out she avoids people
because she thinks she is ugly and she is
worried about what people think of her.
She s a gorgeous girl. Inside and out.
She is what I want in a life partner. I
hope the counselor will help her out but I
am still very worried. She was going to
move with no money in her pocket and get a
job when she gets there. I offered her a
good chunk of money so she could make it
on her own and she accepted. Did I do the
wrong thing? Could it be that she really
has to go to decide what she really wants?
Why can't she figure it out here since
she knows us both already. She makes up
things like how I am too good for her and
she doesnt deserve me and I hate it. She
is such a special person and I love her to
death. At the very least I want the best
for her.

I know what your girlfriend is going
through. I have been in the same
situation. All she needs right now is
for you to let her know that you love her
and you are willing to stand by her no
matter what. As long as you support her
she will get better and it sounds like she
is in a very deep depression. Let her
move and she will realize that that is not
the life she want she will come back to
you. Or she may be like one of those
girls who needs some one who is always
doing her wrong, then it will take awhile
to realize that she is better than that
and she won't want that life. Just be
careful not to push her away because then
you will lose her.
