So my gf and I have been getting in arguments lately that all pretty much have to do with little things getting blown up. We broke up two days ago, but that night we made up and were happy again.

Today I was planning a vacation to Las Vegas for her and I to go on and somewhere along my explanation I tell her that she's the best person to take on vacations.

That led to her saying something along the lines of "so you took a lot of other girls out on vacations?" I must add that she knows I haven't taken any other girls out on vacation as she's my first serious relationship. She was kind of just kidding, but I have this urge to defend myself whenever I get accused; and during that I don't really realize that she's kidding. We got into a slightly heated discussion where I had to explain to her that I wasn't exactly comparing her to other girls but that I just wanted to let her know that she is the best partner imaginable.

This somehow begged the question (in my mind) that when she calls me the best when we have sex that she must be comparing me to other guys while having sex. Since I'm assuming that's her train of thought when the phrase "you're the best" is used.

She quickly became furious and refused to talk to me. Eventually, I apologize since I don't want to lose the relationship over something like that (I realize that I may be a wimp). So now we're still together but she's mad and sad about us right now. It seems as if she has a poor outlook on our relationship.

I want to keep our relationship going with all my heart. I, obviously, love her very much. However, I don't know what to do about making her feel confident in me or to just in general pick her up out of the dumps.

I'm pretty down about it right now. Would love to discuss this with anyone about any details or in general relationship talk.

Girlfriend thinks "you're the best" is directly comparing to someone and I called her out when she said it to me. Shaky relationship, what should I do
