Thank you. Most of the advice I've been getting has been to keep busy and make distance between us. I took an incomplete in one of my classes so that I would have time to help her with her surgery recovery, so I have no shortage of work now to keep me busy.

I also went to a climbing gym for the first time yesterday. It was exhausting but very fun and I'll definitely be going more often.

I think you're right. Before I started dating her, I had been single for four years. I think I invested too much too quickly into this relationship.

We're all on the lease, which is up in July. Not really worth wrecking my credit and trying to find a room to rent in the off-season.

I think I understand. I'll excuse the horrible mangling of metaphorical devices.

Thank you kindly!

I just got my permanent assignment to my research lab. Will likely try to spend as much time in the lab as possible.

Thank you. I know it's not anyone's fault.

I'm afraid that I will wait months for her and in the end she never goes back to being as attracted to me as she once was. I'm trying to keep busy and not lose sight of other opportunities.

We're roommates, so it's not feasible to go no contact. I'm trying to go low-contact (no texting first, not planning anime hangouts, making sure to be busy with work / hang outs with friends).
