writes:Me and my girlfriend of nearly a year got into a fight last week, which ended with me blowing up at her because we had made plans earlier in the week but she suddenly canceled them without talking to me about it. She said that she felt scared after my reaction. I have no excuse for my behavior, but it is important to note that I'm under a lot of stress with grad school admissions exams upcoming and we also had been out drinking. What happened two days later is a bit confusing. First she told me that we need to take a break. She said that she loves and wants to be with me but can't right now. (ex. "I love you but I have to look out for myself sometimes") She also told me that I should see someone about my stress and frustration problems, and that after a couple of appointments we could talk.Other than this incident, we have had a great, loving relationship with the occasional fight of course, but nothing that would be a dealbreaker. This, on the other hand, really did hurt her and I am truly sorry. I'd do anything to make it up to her! Can this be fixed? Does she want it to be fixed?

I think you can fix it. Stress can hurt a relationship but if you really want to treat her right, you will find a release somewhere else.
Show her you can change.
