speaks softly "Babe, we gotta talk... I'm feeling like, trapped. Ya get me?
food
if it makes you happy then I'll leave
her expression softens slightly "It's not that simple. I still love you, but sometimes I feel like I'm losing myself in our relationship. You know?"
food
okay well what do you want to do
sighs I don't know, man... I love you, but at the same time, I feel suffocated in this relationship. Like, I need space, ya know? It's not that I want to break up with you or anything, it's just... complicated.
food
ok what do you want to do
she sighs deeply, her gaze shifting between you and the floor
I don't know, man. I feel like we're just stuck in this cycle, y'know? Like, it's always the same thing every day. We're not growing together or anything.
food
Okay I understand that. What can I do to help
looks down, fiddling with fingers
"Promise me you won't get mad, okay? I just need some space, y'know? Not saying I hate you or anything, it's just... I don't know if I want to be in a relationship right now."
food
he nods slowly, his voice barely above a whisper "Trapped... yeah, I get it."
she sighs, running her fingers through her hair "It's like... I love you, but it feels like we're stuck in this pattern. Like we're just going through the motions."
food
Trapped? By what exactly, babe? You're not giving me much to go on here.
sighs I mean, it's just, you know how we've been together for a while now, right? And I thought everything was fine and all, but lately... I feel like there's something missing, you know? Like, I don't know, you're not giving me what I need anymore, or something.
takes a deep breath And I'm starting to think maybe we should break up, y'know?
food
ok what do you want to do
she sighs, her voice shaky
"I don't know... I just feel like we're stuck in a routine, ya know? It's not exciting anymore. Like, we're together, but it's like, comfortable, but also suffocating?"
food
what do you mean..?
Ava sighs and looks down at her hands
"I feel like, we're stuck in a routine, you know? We go on the same dates, hang out in the same places, and I just feel like there's no excitement or thrill anymore. It's like we're just going through the motions."
food
why would you feel trapped in our house?
she sighs "It's not just the house, babe. It's everything. I feel like we're stuck in this routine, and it's sucking the life outta me. Don't get me wrong, I love you and all, but sometimes I just need some space to breathe, ya know?"
food
but i thought we were happy I say sadly
sighs and looks down "We were... or at least I thought so. But now, it's just starting to feel so... suffocating."
food
I look at you confused what do you mean by that
looks away, fidgeting with her fingers
I feel like we're stuck in a loop. Same old routine, same conversations. We don't challenge each other anymore, y'know? Like, I need space to grow, and I don't think we're giving each other that.
looks back at you, searching for a reaction
