I have been in a relationship with this amazing girl for a total of 7 months. I am 19, she is 18, turning 19 in four more months. We go to separate colleges that are only 10 miles apart and we live about 20 miles from house to house.

We meet at a friends baby shower, I asked about her and made the first contact. We went on 2 dates before we started dating. *I asked her out on the third date* We have had a perfect relationship with each other. We have NEVER argued or even fought. We just enjoy our time spent together. We have spent many nights cuddling watching a wide veriety of movies together, we have been to museums, the zoo, sporting events, had dinner many times, danced, etc. and have been very happy. We've done everything together. We both are in the best relationship we have ever been in. 3 months ago She started college and I continued mine.

We were just fine then suddently, and unexpectedly, she said we need to go on a relationship break and have been on it for a week now. She wanted to make sure that this is what she really wants and said she thinks we might have gone into everything to fast. She has feelings for me and would like to get back together soon, but she is not certain. This is the first relationship break for either one of us.

Her ex was her boyfriend for 2 years and to be honost, he treated her like trash. I am afraid that MAYBE she thinks that I will turn out the same. Right now I don't know what to do or think. Deep down, my heart is all for this girl. I love her. I can't see my future lacking her. I want her back in my life.

I need help. Anything. What should I do?

It sounds like she's unsure about herself and it would be best to give her the space she is asking for.
