My (24m) gf (22f) and I had a fight so bad we decided to break up. She doesn’t remember it.
Ya so basically; last night my gf and I had a pretty nasty argument which culminated in us deciding we need to break up.
Afterwards, she cried for a while. After which I came in and apologized, then wished her luck and told her i’ll always care about her, even when we’re living separate lives. I cried too.
She ended up having a panic attack, hyperventilating and asking me if she can breath. I kept reassuring her it’s okay, and trying to comfort her even when she wouldn’t let me touch her. Afterwards she was almost non-responsive. Only answering with occasional nods.
Then she had a second panic attack. This time she kept asking me to shut the lights off, even though it was pitch black.
She was also asking me why it’s so noisy even though it was quiet and 3AM. She was begging the noise to stop and eventually started bargaining for me to end her there.
I didn’t know what to do so I let her go through the motions while making sure she didn’t hurt herself. Eventually she calmed down, so I left her there as I was probably the trigger. She fell asleep, and I sticked around for a few hours.
When I woke her up later she was as happy as she usually is first thing in the morning. A little bit confused but otherwise wanting hugs and kisses and attention and what-not.
At first I thought she was faking it in a desperate last-bid attempt, but after asking her about it it really seems like she has absolutely no memory of last night. She was just my girlfriend again like nothing happened.
I told her everything that happened, I told her why it happened and I told her how I feel now. She doesn’t remember and is assuring me she loves me and never wants to break up. To be honest I don’t really either but our fight just got unhealthy.
There’s a lot of details I left out, but that’s what I see as the most important parts. Thanks for reading.
What would you guys do about this? Just leave it? Seek professional help (Probably)? I would appreciate any help you guys got.
