I’m a worried man

[jtimber]

Hi there. I hope it’s ok that I’m a male posting on this forum. I’d just like to ask a question but need to tell a bit of my story first if that’s ok. I met my girlfriend 6 months ago. She became the love of my life and my best friend very quick. We had a brilliant time she loves me dearly and everyone can see that. She’s 38 I’m 32. She warned me that she gets bad pmt and I’ve seen it for myself. Every month has been a bit nasty when she goes through it. But this time!! She mentioned Friday that the next week would be a big struggle. She felt it coming. We had a lovely weekend, we don’t live together and usually I stay at hers Friday and Saturday and go home Sunday night so she can get up Monday morning and go to work relaxed and have time to sort her own things out. But this Sunday she asked me to stay so I thought brilliant. Then Monday as her pmt or what I now think is pmdd kicked in she seemed to change very quickly. Sent me a text saying she needs space etc and I said no problem. Then Tuesday morning sent me a text completely out the blue saying she doesn’t want a relationship needs to be on her own and it devastated me. I didn’t understand what was happening in her head and I acted out a bit. Crying down the phone etc. She’s taken this as unreasonable behaviour. I don’t think it is as I was just suddenly told to leave basicallly. This was 6 days ago and she hasn’t really given me anything to go on as to why. But I remember her saying that her pmt is so bad she asked the doctor for a hysterectomy but he said no. So sitting here broken hearted I started researching and it seems it could be pmdd. Which I’m happy to live with and will help her all I can.

My question is, does this sound familiar and is it the kind of behaviour that pmdd can cause? Let’s keep in mind that we’ve had no other problems in our relationship whatsoever and only last month was telling me she wants babies with me. I just need to know if there’s hope or if I have to draw a line under it, but that would then mean that she’s not a very nice person and I refuse to believe that. She is the most caring and lovely woman I’ve ever met.

Thanks
