Did I do the right thing by ending it?

my girlfriend and I recently broke up because I thought she deserved better than me.. we have been going out for 5 months and have been through hell together wich made our relationship a lot stronger

my reason for ending it with her was because of the...

pain I caused her..

it wasnt physical pain.. I said a lot of things in anger that made her feel bad, guilty, etc.. and I didnt mean to hurt her on purpose, I say a lot of bs when im mad.. and everytime I think about it.. I start to cry.. and I tell myself she doesnt deserve me..

I helped her get through a lot of stuff though in her time of need.. I was there for her.. and she was there for me.. but I just cause pain to all of my loved ones that tried to help..

I just wanted to know if what I did was right..

I know that you may want to hear that you should go back to her- and maybe in a little while, you can. But it sounds like right now what you really need is to get to know yourself and what causes you to lash out like that when you're angry- and then improve on it! Some time apart might allow you to figure yourself out a little better, and in turn you'll end up being better for her. Make sure you've explained to her why you chose to end it, and if you stay friends then you can see if you're ready to revisit the relationship after some time.

and I still love her, but I dont want her to be hurt just because of me.. I want her to be happy, I want whats good for her..

It sounds like you really did do the right thing. It sounds like you made a very selfless decision, and that is wonderful. Maybe you two could stay friends so that you can continue to be there for each other. Then, maybe after a while, when you have grown and matured even more, you two would have the possibility of getting back together.

If you feel like you get angry a lot and can't really control yourself, you could always try talking to a therapist. It might be awkward at first, but therapists can often teach you some great ways to stay calm, so it might be worth looking into.

everybody yells when their angry we all say things we regret but its knowing how to say your sorry and mean it that is rare if you love her and she loves you maybe it would have been better for you two to stay together

YAY! we're back together, well.. we got back a little while after this post, but yeah I havnt been on in a while ^_^ ty for the advice guys *hugs*

Hey LoneWolf I feel youre pain. I just recently like a week ago ended it with my girlfriend who of 2 1/2 years gave everything to. I always comforted her in her times of need. I just had a really close friend die and she wasnt even there when I was standing on the street corner mourning for his lose. I did the EXACT same thing you did I said some things when I got mad that scared her but I LOVE her to death. so bad I want to get into her myspace and delete it all. I know that immature but I gave her everything 900 ring 300 glasses and more. We shared a lot and just recently she broke up with me so I called her and said some nasty things, now I have a restraining order against her. What to do? I don't know either bro
