    Girlfriend needs Space! What do I do?
    Let me start by saying we have been together for 2 years on nov. 22, well we have been great together, but all of a sudden we started getting into arguments over stupid , I feel its because we got so use to each other, well we broke up a couple months ago because of it but I told her we would work things out and I got her flowers and a promise necklace that things would work out because I love her so much, we been together sense we were 14. Lost our virginity together everything! I do not care about any other women, well now its been about two weeks she said she needed her space, I am going crazy I been reading like Yahoo answers what to do, I just can't stand it, like at work all I do is think about her and I kept textin her and she said she needed her space, I can trust her not to get with another guy or anything because when I asked her she got pissed and said she isn't a slut, and I feel she wouldn't because even if we have sex too many times a week or so she feels used, there are just too many things going threw my head at this point, she won't call, I don't know, I am going crazy!! Deep down I know we will get back together and I just can't wait to be happy with her again I never want to fight with her again, I feel that if we did break up for good, that it would be hard for me to find someone else that I feel is RIGHT FOR me! I feel she is perfect for me. I want to work on things that I know I did that made us brake up, I got ed over be4 on women so I have trust problems sometimes, main reason for this space is because she said something about a guy that I know of a weird amount of times that day, and I asked her why she kept talking about him so much and she got real pissed and said I was not going to change and I don't know, I am changing the questions, I know what I have done wrong and on this break I have not been asking her tons of questions, I only ask questions when I feel there is something going on even though deep down I know there isn't, the guy she kept talking about has a g.f and her assigned seet in school is by him, I know there is nothing going on, please give me advise, I know things will work out but I'm just going crazy, mixed thoughts. Deepressed, just lately I have been somewhat whatever about so I don't push her away farther, thank you so much for reading, hope you have good advice.
    Thanks: Jeff

    space = not into you right now

    Time is the only thing that will tell. You have to have the patience to let the time pass without trying to make things happen. Can you do that?

    Ha ha you are learning quickly kc

    The "space" excuse is an easy let down which means, I want to go play the field and let you sit on the bench in case I need to put you in a reserve spot when I run out of players.

    Like I feel I can, I just go crazy thinking of her getting with another guy, even though I know she wouldn't I just feel like there is always that chance, I know she will call me soon hopefully, be4 she called me but I got a little tooo excited and might of pushed her away, she says she still loves me she just needs her space, I have so many mixed thoughts. And she is going threw a hard time with her mom and dad, and her dog got put to sleep, and found cat dead in the woods, I know she is going thew a hard time and I try to make her feel better, and I thought we were over but she told me she wasn't and got really jelous when I said there is something going on with me, I meant to say us and she FREAKED OUT saying what with another girl! And like got really pissed because this girl messaged me on myspace asking me to hang out with her and I said no, so she got jelous and said why don't u go her then blah blah, then I calmed her down saying I would never ever do that too her and have to interests in other girls.

    She just wants to make sure she finds someone else before you do. Move on, if she really wants to be with you she'll forget about this "need my space" thing. But don't waste time waiting on her, she may never want to get back together.

    It's the same old song and dance pal, read my post https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/relati...ke-280105.html but I'll be more then happy and try and help you. All all of us can really do is tell you to move on with your life and give her her space as its called, she'll either come around or she won't but you still got to get on man.

    Well I feel like it will work out, and I think she does too she just needs time, we hang out and hardly with our friends, I am not too good at expressing my feeling I guess I get all mixed up, but I could tell when she got super jelous about another girl talking to me, and I know her inside and out, when I talked to her about another girl, she just gets jelous and hates it. Do you think its just a phase because trust me. she HAS phases!! She has some issues but I love her to death, no ones perfect. I think she is just going threw a hard time with school, work, family, and pets that had to be put to sleep and found dead. Do you think it's a phase?

    Everyone says that their situation is different. The fact is you need to prepare yourself for the worst. The sooner you do that the better it will be for you. You cannot imagine the pain you will be in for if you continue to bury your head in the sand. Believe me, I know.

    Space means..

    Yeah I'm done with you I'm moving on.. but ill keep you around, just in case things don't work out k.


    It goes like this.

    We need space.. I have met someone else.
    Stop calling me...


    You feel like this is going to work out? Yeah... really? Umm no you don't.. because you would not be here if you did, so do yourself a favor and stop lying to yourself.
    It does not matter how much you want it.. or how many promise rings you get someone..

    There feelings are there own.. and if they don't want you anymore.. then that's it.. and (SPACE) is a bad sign.
    Because you love her. And you don't want space do you? You want to talk things out and work with her as a team..
    She does not want to..

    Real couples that love each other. Workout there problems together.. leason 1 :)
    Real couples that want to spend the rest of there lifes together.. normal don't ask for space when things get a bit tough.. (lesson 2)

    Don't lie to yourself or give yourself false hope (lesson 3)


    You can't imagen how many times. We have heard this girl is different and she is no like that..
    Trust us.. we have all been there before and the best way to think about this.

    Is to face its over.. and deal with your emotions.


    Leave this girl man :) focus on yourself
    We have all been there.
    With our first loves

    Its tough.. and probable will be really hard for you to get over it

    But you will

    With Stricked no contact!
    And a strong will

That's I really appretiate it, I am just soooo confused!

    girls are busy :) in fact more so than guys.
    she still talks to you. And all that.

    I would not read too much into this or overthink anything. At this time as it is to early
    just relax. And take it day by day

    oh yeah don't go back with X :)

    just be cool with this girl
    I know sometimes you just want to say..

    Yo! Why the hell are you not replying or spending time with me!?
    I bet your off with someone else!
    or are you just keeping your options open
    you know what!

    #%$#% YOU!


    But lucky us that we can control how we act :) so its normal to think these things
    just don't let them take you down so much.


    make a weekend plan. Or something even if its just for a quick coffe.

    Dude, just have fun. She is busy, and the most beneficial thing for you to do is to be busy as well.

    I know it sounds like fairytale propaganda, but if it's meant to be it'll just happen.

    It sounds like you're still involved with the ex somewhat, and are looking towards other girls for the answers. You got to be happy with yourself first. You're expecting this new one to make you happy. Just do you for now.

    It sounds like she's very interested, just very busy and that she wants to take it slow. If you play your cards right, it could be a very lasting and meaningful relationship. Keep busy, keep away from the ex, and enjoy your time with her.

    Just don't flip out about it and just have fun man.
