Provide space means giving your boyfriend the freedom to interact with the community. This can be done such as:
1. let him watch a movie with coworkers
2. let him go shopping with her girlfriends
3. give him time to have dinner with his family
4. given the opportunity to rest from work and not home to ask her out when she was tired
Thanks

When your partner asks for space, you give it. TO me askign for space is basically breaking up. So I would go NO contact, and let your partner have there time to think. If they come back to youl, then you have the choice if you want to pursue it, if they don't come back to you, there loss right? And you will be much happier finding someone who wants to be with u!
Just remember everyone needs time to themselves, and can't be smothered by there partner 24/7. Try being more independent, and having a life that doesn't always involve your partner. Always keep your friends, and the relationships with your friends strong. Have a life that doesn't involve just your partner

I don't know how to give her more space then I already give her and I do a sport and that keeps me so busy that we only can hang out once a week or once every 2 weeks so I don't know how to give her more

I think that asking for space is simply that: feeling a bit smothered or as though you are losing your individual identity.
But in light of the information that you only see each other once a week, think this girl is looking to break up.
My advice: Talk to her, tell her that you don't see how you can give each other more space and see her as you only see her once a week.
Tell me, what age are you? If you are very young it may be that this is all she expects from a relationship, simply the title of girlfriend and nothing else?
Let us know.

Does the 1995 stand for the year you were born?
If so the two of you are quite young,and I don't think this has so much to do with wanting space,I think she has had second thoughts about being in a relationship.
Have a serious talk with her and ask her what she means.

Well I'm sorry,but it does sound as if her feelings are changing.
These things happen,and I would actually ask her if she wants to break up-at least that way you will know.

Space means more time alone as individuals, and less time spent as a couple. More time for her to do her own thing, to be her own person. Less contact. Just taking a couple steps back from each other.

Change the conversations back to other things, besides the sappy romance stuff. If its not to late. I mean how much more space does she need? You barely see her at all unless you're always texting, and calling. Stop that, too.
She doesn't sound that interested to me, And I would give her plenty of space until she called me. So what if she dumps you? Do you know how many girls around you would be more than willing to share some good times with you?

Just let her hang with her friends, parents, or some people she knows.

How old are you? Do you know the risk of pregnancy and STDs when you have unprotected sex?
You say you're both young... I would guess you are way to young to have sex. Wait till you're older and you're ready for a relationship.
I would hope you are being properly supervised... sounds like you aren't.

Your 15,your too young.
Simple as that.
Don't put yourselves in the situation where you could both get into trouble.

If the two of you have gone that far, don't kid yourself that it won't happen again.
She should be on the pill, and you should be carrying condoms.
Telling 16 year olds not to have sex when they want to, doesn't mean squat usually.
Your head may tell you not to, but your hormones get in the way.
The relationship itself seems to be up and down and all over the place. Try dealing with that first, knowing where you stand, before you go any further.
