Dear gabby,
Sunday my girlfriend that ive been going out with for nearly 2 years said she wants a break. She said she has lost the lust and passion for me as a lover and wants to be best friends again. For a little background ive known her for about 4 years and I liked her the moment i met her. We became best friends, but i could never get up enough nerve to ask her out. One day she asked me if i liked her and would like to go out with her and i was thrilled. Also i would say out of the two years we probably haven't seen each other a total of 80 days and the longest we didn't see each other was 5 days and that was over a fight. Over the 2 years we never really fought. The only fight we ever really did have was when one night i was in a bad mood from work and was kinda picking fun at her she took it literal and was texting her best friend (who doesn't get along with me at all). Well i rolled over in my sleep and i saw the last text she sent and the last text from her friend and got mad at her and told her to leave cause i didn't want to fight. We had that fight about 5 months ago and during that fight she said it seamed like we were working harder to be in love than at the begging.
Now the problem is is that she doesn't love me the same and just wants to be friends for a while and see what happens. Well I don't know if I can sit on the sidelines and just be the friend. She was my first everything and I was hers. I just don't know what to do
