I don't want an easy out tho bro, I want an easy in. We fell inove with a burning passion and our relationship is so great it shouldn't have to suffer these doubts she has on her days off..

Lucky man 😠I'd be so much happier in ur situation cuz I don't mind the mood swings, the thing that gets to me is going back and forth on wanting to be with me

Thanks, and I think the difference has to do with other aspects of her personality too. She's scared of conflict at all and doesn't like talking about her feelings in any way, so when she has an off day she immediately tries to find a way out since she'd rather not handle it at that moment

I don't feel like I can't leave the relationship, I easily can if I just let it end. On her off days, she immediately goes to wanting to break up so she doesn't have to handle it. It's only after I talk to her and help her work through it where she backpedals on wanting to end it. The only reason I do is because I don't want to leave her, I love her more than anything and I've been in many relationships, some toxic and some great, but I've never loved anyone the way I do her. She's perfect and I want to figure this out

Exactly. Like she's not a bad person overall, her on days are more like her normal self and she's sweet, caring, very loving, silly, and fun. It's just when she gets those off days she's like a completely different person. Not sweet or lovey at all and idk how to handle it.

That's the issue though is when she gets these off days she's not very willing to work together on it, and when she has her on days I'm afraid bringing it up will cause her to spiral back into being off again as very little issues can easily do that to her

I don't expect it to go away, but I know people who have managed to work through it and get to a point where they still love each other and are romantically invested despite the disorder, one of them being related to my girlfriend actually. I've been working with her directly to try to figure this out but I'm reaching out to reddit for any advice that can help the situation rn
