<human>: Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?

My girlfriend (22/f) and I (22/m) broke up 4 days ago after dating for 4 years. The reason was because, as we were both finishing school, I became increasingly more doubtful and unsure about whether I wanted to continue with our relationship. As the year progressed, I tried to isolate myself in order to try to understand why I was constantly feeling unattracted to her and why I sometimes felt like I needed to experience life more and fuck around. I ended up hurting her by not taking care of her and not making her feel loved so she broke up with me 4 days ago. As I reflected on the situation and on our relationship, I realized that we had something extremely special and that I fucked it up. I no longer felt like I wanted to fuck around. I came to the conclusion that I was not the person that I displayed through my actions wanted to be in this relationship beyond a doubt. Prior to this past year, our relationship was amazing, exciting, and inspiring. I want to marry this girl.

So, after 7 long hours of talking with her and then her father, we agreed that it was worth giving it a try. She requested that before we gave it a try that we had some space from each other for a month and a half as she felt like she needed to get over a few things before we had a fresh start.

Is this a good idea? What can I do to be better next time?
