Been in a 1 year relationship with girlfriend. Everything great about it minus a few small things. But everything is great and there isn’t anything toxic. We recently (3 weeks ago) took a vacation to Hawaii and it was great minus the fact I got sick. This trip was planned maybe 5 months into our relationship. But the week before the trip she brought up to me that she thought that I was going to break up with her after the trip was done. I assured her that wasn’t the case and she shouldn’t be thinking that. After the trip, it’s almost as if a switch flipped in me. She still acted herself but I found myself missing her less (we don’t live together), less interested in sex compared to before, saying less words of affirmation, and I don’t get as excited to seeing her. Some days I feel like this, some days I don’t. There’s also the fact that I dislike her parents. My partner’s parents ARE NOT good people and my girlfriend has told me about this and warned me. I can take them talking shit about me but they recently started talking shit about my parents (whom they don’t even know anything about). I absolutely hate this and don’t even want to go to her house anymore. Perhaps there is resentment for the fact that I have to deal with their toxicity and she doesn’t on my side. We both go to school and her classes are difficult so often times she’s busy studying notes when we’re with each other or not with each other. I don’t hold this against her but it does get lonely. I also go to school and work a full time graveyard shifts. I’ve been sleep deprived ever since college started because I have to sleep in my car before class because my work is closer than my house is. My life after the trip has been work-sleep-school-sleep-work again on repeat. And maybe I’ll have some time for myself. In general I haven’t been feeling myself lately. I love my girlfriend and would rather be with her than not. But my feelings are all over the place. I’ve been frustrated

TLDR: Been less affectionate towards my partner and haven’t been as excited to see her compared to before. I have been stressed however with her parents, loneliness and school and work with some sleep deprivation
