Pretty awful. My partner broke up with me on Friday. We got back together on Sunday and things have been cozy since; closer and more comfortable than they had been for months. Until we had a big fight over lunch today.

I can't help but feel like I'm just desperately trying to resurrect a dead relationship, but I can't just let go. I've fallen in love plenty of times, but she's the first person to ever feel like a soulmate to me.

I know she loves me just as much as I love her, but we just don't seem to be able to work through our issues. Try as we might communication keeps falling short. Old wounds keep opening up and in my desperate attempts to bandage them I keep causing new ones.
