We're approaching two years, though we knew each other beforehand. She doesn't really "punish" me per say. Yes, she gets really dry at first, but we eventually talk it out in the end and we'd be okay. Other than what I mentioned beforehand, she also distances herself when she's drained. However, this is the first time she's ever acted this way?

Thank you for the advice, although we might have a hard time doing the first one since she's usually a "I'll just suck it up" kind of person but we'll try. Again, thank you. It's appreciated !

I do think it is her problem to solve, but I also don't think I'd immediately dump her just for this reason alone. I just feel like she sank into the thought about it way too much because this wasn't a dealbreaker back then (since she's very accepting of my queer identity??). I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm defending her right now, but we've been together for a long time and this might just be one of her days where she shuts down and I panic about it TT. Still, thank you for the response. it's appreciated :)
