Ended 4-year relationship after 1 month of being back together

My girlfriend broke up with me out of the blue after 4 years together, citing doubts about our future and her inability to give me quality time due to work.

What I wish I knew
"She had been struggling with these doubts for months and needed to have an open conversation about them before ending the relationship"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly and honestly with your partner about your doubts and concerns before making a decision that can affect both of you"

Clear regret.
The downsides outweighed what was gained.
