<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

We started dating in June of 2012. It was my first real, long term relationship with a girl, and I had never been happier in my life. There was a long period of the relationship (9-10 months of it) where everything was as perfect as I could imagine. We were so in love, and I believe we still are..

Until everything started falling apart. Her mother is a struggling alcoholic and is going through a BRUTAL (no exaggerations here) divorce. Her stepdad cheated on her mom, and her real dad is still trying to get back with her. Lots of family problems. She has basically adopted the position of being a mother to her younger brother and her new kitten.

We used to go out and we used to have so much fun, but after all the above happened (around the 10 month mark) things started getting rockier.. not by fault of ours. We just started losing interest in each other.

I felt like I was getting bored. I wanted to go out and actually have fun and she needed to stay in and be a support system for her family, and I feel like an absolute dumb ass for not trying to work harder.

We lost the energy to keep up a healthy relationship, and both of us agreed that what happened need to happen because it wouldn't have ever ended better. My problem now is that I can't stop feeling like I don't want it to be over. I know I'm still in love. I know she is. But right now is just not the time.. No matter how badly I want it be.

And I could use any advice that could help make the situation easier. I want her back so bad.
<bot>: I ended a relationship that was perfect to me because we encountered an inevitable situation that drained both of our happiness. Now I want the relationship back and I'm scared that it's not going to happen.
