[PSY]

I don't have any advice for you, aside from what's already been said. I just wanted to say that maybe, just maybe, a break isn't what you two really need. Perhaps your relationship just needs to be spiced up. I mean, it sounds like you both want to be together in the long-term, but due to your conflicting work schedules, the "romantic" part of your relationship is suffering. That might be something you could throw out there... but do it in a way that doesn't make your girlfriend feel "trapped" or "stuck" with you. As other members have said, the more you pull her toward you, the more she'll want to pull away from you.
