    Everyone else said the same thing. But you're young, so you're going to have to learn this lesson the hard way perhaps.

    If she calls, answer it, yes. BUT keep it short, sweet, and simple, yet polite, but not more than that. She is the one who wants the break - she is the one who NEEDS the break. So why take a break yourself? Must be other people you can find to hang out with, does not have to be romantic. Does not have to go at the speed of light, which is what most likely happened to you and her in the beginning. Good luck.
    I totally agree with Wildcat and Geo. Have seen other posts and advice they have given and they are on target!

    She's telling you that she needs time and space. You'd be wise to give it to her. You've only known her for 6-7 weeks. That's not a long time. You've probably been entirely too needy and clingy during those 6-7 weeks. You need to have a life of your own. You've just started college. There must be a million things you could be getting involved in. Do it. You need to have lots of things to occupy your time and attention. Don't build your life around this or any other girl.

    Because I think she'd also think it was immature if I didn't.

    aslong as I don't call her, make it up to her to get in touch sorta thing?

    Yes, you can answer (but don't have to.) Just keep it short and brief. Keep in mind that, on the phone, if you don't answer, she'll assume that you are out and busy and that's not a bad thing. Not answering the telephone isn't the same as purposely ignoring her when seeing her in person.

    Just tell her you forgot to turn it on or forgot to take it with you.
