How can I fix our relationship?

i’m 33 and my girlfriend is 34. we’ve been together for 1 year. we are both divorced and we knew one another while we were both married. once we were both divorced we hooked up and as of yesterday it was pretty serious-talks of me moving in, having children and getting married. but it seems anytime she would talk of her ex or anything pertaining to him i would shut down, not say a word, not look at her, touch her, etc. and obviously it drove her crazy. it happened again last night and she had all she could handle with it and i feel this is the end of our relationship-i don’t want it to be…what am i to do?

Answer #1

Talk to her about it. If she knows what you are thinking and feeling, she’s more likely to understand and accept you and your behavior. From there, it’s something you two could work on together.
