My girlfriend asked for "space", what do I have to do to win her back?
I've been in a relationship with this girl for about a year. I've changed so much for this person, tried new things, made sacrifices and ended up falling for her. She knows I care deeply about her. She said that I keep her sain when life gets complicated, I'm there for her. Anyway, I think we may have been moving a little too fast now that I think of it, but she started talking about moving in together and saving money was now "our" priority. Last month our schedules conflicted. We spend a weekend camping with her brothers friends on vacation, which I'm glad I experienced it, would go again and again. The next 3 weeks, she and I traveled, which she was to be gone for a week. We'd e text or call each other everyday, saying how we miss each other and she would send dirty jokes to make me laugh. Everything seemed peachy keen. When she gets back later that week she says she needed to see me. I felt the spark was still there, but when I arrived I got the old we should talk... She claims we are in a rut. I told her you've been traveling so much we haven't had the time to ourselves. She cried and explained that night she's afraid she's making the biggest mistake of her life, but she wants space and we need to step back, lose the title but also says, she doesn't want to lose me forever. She claims she doesn't know what she wants, she doesn't know if it's work & travel that is making the relationship sour for her. Maybe I'm too settled? She claims I don't know her when I asked if she cheated or had thoughts about it. Then after all the crying and bs, she throws herself at me and we have passionate sex. The next morning I go to leave and she tells me to get the rest of my stuff, crying again. She says give me sometime to figure this all out. So I asked, "r you giving me the green light to date other people?" She says well I don't want to hold you back. So I asked, is that what you want? She stutters and then says, "Not soon that's for sure but maybe in a little while. What do I do? Leave the ball in her court and do my own thing? How long until I contact her? Do you think she'll ever give it a chance?
