Thankyou @Sweetpea76 ..i do very much agree with you and he has not said he has wanted to break up or stopped contact with me im on day 4/8 of mind camp though longest time ive gone without contact to him so little hard and may be getting the better of me a little....im feeling a little more...

Im having a chat with my dad.... he has asked that could it be possible that my partner is not wanting to end it with me because he doesnt want to be the one to do it so it doesnt hang over his head? And with his ptsd and possibly trying to sabotage it?

@Sweetpea76 I have just come to the conclusion if he wanted to end it he already would have but something is holding him back. Like he wants me to do it. Everyone has always left him. But i dont give in that easy. Dont know if thats a good thing or bad thing.

@Sighs and @Santa_Laurie ...... i keep getting little crying outburst every so often its day 4/8 its hard to do things for yourself when im wondering how his going...just so much fear what Sundays going to bring I don't know what to do....I've never gone this long without speaking to him. I...

@Javagoat There is a very helpful book and its good for both the partner and sufferer its called the post traumatic stress disorder relationship by Diane England. That has helped me as a supporter.... :)

@Santa_Laurie ....what if i could be a trigger is that possible with PTSD? i do ask him alot of questions sometimes and try to provide alot of solutions to issues but he is very open with me..... i'm strating to think that he gets tense and jumpy when its only around me is that a possibility due...

I've been doing that but it still brings up the whole paragraph

Apologies i'm trying to follow through with doing the one sentence quotes instead of stating the whole paragraph.

@shimmerz I am sorry, I don't recall who decided on this break. Could you remind me? Something just clicked in my head he randomly asked me last week where i see myself in 5 years. I initiated the "mind camp" because i coud see he was in emotional pain he had the agreed and said he did...

I have one thing that keeps playing on my mind though @shimmerz..... what if he is feeling so much better that im not around at the moment that he may just end it when it comes around to sunday.... this just keeps rolling around in my head... any light on this thought about what ptsd sufferers...

Its been really tough tonight :( i keep having thoughts that he is feeling so much better with me not being around and that when it comes to sunday he may actually just end it.

Thank you :) I know deep down its true because i see it when his having his better days. But his very much an action speaks more than words type of guy. For example i was craving soda water one night so he got up and went to the service station just to get me soda water ( thats very important...

Thankyou for your support also shimmerz it really helps understanding from a ptsd sufferer. Do you think i should wait for him to call me or is it okay for me to call him if i havent heard back on sunday? My friends keep saying i should just wait for him to call me. But i know he wouldnt mind...

Thankyou sweetpea, That was very helpful to me and i really appreciate it. This time is good for me also its making me think if im ready to go further in this relationship and if im strong enough. Im hoping i can just get a sign and just know where the future will go. I do love him and i...

Sighs, I think you have it spot on there very much my partner he has said to me before " if you knew what was going through my head you wouldnt stay" but thats upto him to tell me. I know a few things. How can you spot triggers and what are the most frequent ones with ptsd? And maybe some...

Thanks @Sweetpea76 I initiated it because i could tell he needed it aswell as the comment he made " i thought you may have known i needed some space because of my headspace" I asked him nicely if he needs space to just verbalise it to me. And would respect it But thats why i initiated it this...

Yeah we both agreed you are right and he is always about keeping agreements too. I think my fear is that he will forget me

Hi signs, Thankyou for your reply Its terrible to hear that he makes excuses not to cuddle sometimes it does not make sense mine just gets very tense and jumpy at times especially more when i initiate it not him. Im wondering however if they say it would "be better to just walk away from this...

The womens mind can be so many things these days. Yeah i kind of ended up putting that in my head that he just looked like a dork but i looked good so its all okay. Haha Im on day 3 out of the 8 at the moment of "space" i call it mind camp week.....even though i initiated it im having the urge...

Hi There, My partner became very distant about 2 weeks ago and felt like he just wanted to be alone and said he just was not in a great headspace. So i did something for him and initiated space however placed in boundaries where we would speak again in 8 days and catch up. I gave him positive...

Hi Muse, My apologies in relation to spelling and punctuation i have mild dyslexia. and apologies this has confused you my partner has been diagnosed with PTSD and depression by professionals. He currently sees a specialised psychologist through the military that assists him ( which at times...

thanks sweetpea- i could tell he needed it thats why i suggested it and he agreed, i think i'm just having some fear that he may get to thinking this week and may start feeling better without me could this be possible?.......Also do you think its normal when it comes to facebook that people with...
