During the last few weeks me and my girlfriend have been having a tough time. We have been together for 2 years, and lately things have not been so good. I felt like we are not that close anymore. But one night about 3 weeks ago, we sat down and talked about it (thanx to the advice from someone in the forum). She said that she would like more space. I understood where she was coming from. So I decided to give her just that. But the last 2 weeks have been hard on me. We only live like 20 minutes away from each other and go to the same university, but I have only seen her twice, and have not even talked on the phone with her that much. I have been keeping busy, such as hanging out more with my friends, and working on things that I always wanted to do. Last night I just complained that I really missed her and wanted to see her more. I knew it would be hard for me to give her more space, cause we always hung out togther alot, almost everyday. She told me last night that the reason why she wanted more space was because she said she put somethings on hold and she did not want to do that anymore. She said she wanted more time to hang with her friends, study more to get better grades (dont know why cause she gets 90's) and train for biking even more. Now I feel like I have been stopping her from doing things she loves doing. I feel like I've been a bad boyfriend. I now that I never stopped her from doing things that it was her own decision. She did do those things but not as often. But I guess now she wants to do them more. I have told her that its hard for me not seeing you all the time and she said "I know it is". It seems like she is not having a hard time with this. But I'm sure she is but not telling me. Today I feel like the more I tell her that I miss her and want to see her more, like I'm driving her away even more. How could I stop myself from complaining to her that I dont see her enough? I have been trying hard not to have any outbusts like the one I had last night, but even though I am keeping myself busy its just that I find it hard. I'm not sure if any of this makes any sense to anybody but me, but please try to respond. I just need someone to talk to.
Thanks
