Ya know, a good part of any relationship is talking. When you don't talk, a good part of it will be making assumptions that may be wrong as often, if not more so, than they are right. You don't give much information on what the "life you can't provide" is. But the bottom line is this. Talk to her instead of talking to people like me. I can do what you seem to be doing, and start making assumptions, but all that does is fuel the doubt, the worry, the sense of frustration... when the real answers are sitting right in front of you. You should never be afraid to talk to someone you want to spend life with. There is no one else in life with whom you will communicate more. So why hold all these thoughts in your mind and ask other people? The answer to that question is that you might get an answer you don't like. Honestly though, wouldn't you rather have the answer than have the worry? And isn't that why you're here in the first place? To get answers?There are no real answers here. Just advice. No one can walk in your shoes... though if I could, I'd be walking in there with her and asking her the things I wanted and needed to know.Good luck.
