My relationship with the girl that means everything to me hits a big pot hole

Hi, My name is Matt im 21 and I have a problem with my girlfriend(shes 20) of 7 months. To start, we met about 6 or 7 years ago. We had a short relationship as kids and knew we couldnt stay together because we live far from each other(across the country). We kept in contact, dated other people and still had such attachment. We started dating this year of april and it was perfect. I dont know if we moved fast or not but it seemed like we just let out all our feelings at once. Her and I texted every day as much as possible since then and we've seen each other 3 times since we started dating again. We've talked about how in love we are and that we'd like to end up being married to each other one day. But in that time we've had arguments. I started all of them mostly and they were about her talking to other guys a certain way. She said it was all in a joking manner and i believe her. But i guess it took a toll on her because she was afraid to make me unhappy since then. Then finally this month it was my birthday and everything was going perfect like usual but i saw some stuff on instagram of her skyping some guy from a different country she's known for a while. She told me they were just friends in the midst of the argument. I guess I said something that she really didnt like but she ended up breaking up with me on my birthday. Its been 2 days since then but she's been texting me every once in a while (Not like she did before). But she tells me that she feels like sh*t, is tired of it and cant handle it anymore. I know that I let my trust slip with her and Im at fault. I have full trust that she isn't doing anything wrong, and that me acting out about her guy friends (she grew up with lots of guy friends) was making her depressed and the distance doesnt help any. I know its quite a complex situation but I'd love for some help. Thank you -Matt

I think you should tell her what you said on here, and let her know that you trust her completely! If she decides not to get back with you then just move on, theres plenty more fish in the sea :-)

To 1234. I have told her all of that but she thinks that my arguing about your guy friends will persist. So she's trying to accept it or she just wont believe me. I cant find another girl in the sea when the girl i should be with is the one i messed up with.

From her point of view she's just hurting right now, that's why shes struggling to accept it. Positive is that she is still texting you and not completely giving you the silent treatment. First thing don't keep apologising and saying you trust her completely. We women are strange creatures and by telling us that all the time it makes us doubt it. Ultimately give her time. In the meantime respond to her texts, make her feel loved and trusted. Hopefully she accept you really mean it :)
