much appreciated thank you. So I should just wait for her to get back in touch with me? even if a few more days goes by?

thank you. It was nice, we were supposed to just drop me off straight at home but she suggested going somewhere for food so we went to a restaurant and a few shops, had a good laugh and spent a nice day together, we then headed back to drop me off home....and as the same as at the end of each time we've seen each other, we've spoken in the car for a while and chatted, some intimacy and then I went inside. If anything she seemed more open than any of our previous dates

Yes, exclusive in only dating each other....no talking to or dating other people. She deleted the dating app we met on (she deleted it off her own back)...and said she doesnt need the app because she's only dating me.

Yes it was long term, they lived together etc... however he was abusive and manipulative, and she said many occasions she was relieved when It finally ended between them. so she then spent over a year focusing on herself etc.. Its been 2 days since no contact from her. although it doesnt sound like 2 days is a lot but when we've spoken everyday no stop for the past 5 weeks its strange and confusing. I hope its not the latter as she was saying all the right things on how she'd like to see how things go between us and hoped it would lead to more eventually. thank you

Maybe so, but like I mentioned previously, nothing had changed in terms of pushing things too quickly, we were going at a steady pace...enjoying each others company and dating, there was no talk of a relationship as I knew that would be far down the line...neither of us are in a rush. Everything was normal communcation and talking was good, plenty of fun/flirty talk face to face and over messages including the days after she picked me up from the airport and then one day it seemed to change

her last relationship ended over a year ago which is quite a long time. We have been dating 5weeks and everything had been great, a lot of fun, getting to know one another, arranging dates and then a big shift in communcation from her

We were exclusive, neither of us were dating or talking to anyone else, she deleted the dating App which we met on because she wasn't interested in talking to anyone else because of how much we hit it off. Yes she wanted to take it slowly (Including sex) because of some really bad things that had happened to her in the past, and without saying it directly....one of the worst things that could happen to a woman, she went through that in the past. I was completely supportive of whatever time she needed with regards to that and not pushy whatsoever. It was such a dramatic shift which confused me the most.

not necessarily just because of the break up but partly, she lost trust in men, and also because of how busy she is with her work too

thank you for replying. I guess you are right, though her break up was over a year ago so not sure that is a factor. My most recent relationship ended 6 months ago and I only started dating again 2 months ago

Not sure really, its hard to describe....but the sudden lack of communication, the frequency and speed of replies, effort into the conversation seemed to have changed, she seemed a bit on edge

Yes a massive reduction in communication compared to usual. Like I mentioned, we've talked everyday for the past 4-5weeks including while I was away on holiday for 10 days. Im quite good at feeling when something is up and this is one of those instances. Yes I agree possibly jumped the gun, but with such a sudden change is was instinctive to see if she was ok if you know what I mean. I am a very confident guy, it was a trait she finds attractive in me, the message wasn't a needy insecure message if that makes sense. thank you.

Highly unlikely, I am the first person she has dating in the past year as she has been concentrating on her phD work. Her ex was abusive which is why she has a few trust issues and wanted to go slowly

Thank you for replying. I mean moving too fast in terms of what she said when we first started dating....she had a really rough break up in her last relationship and basically went completely off the idea of dating/relationships until we started dating. She has said on multiple occasions that she wants to take it slow otherwise she'd feel overwhelmed which I agreed with. Im not sure we did lose momentum, nothing changed during that period when I was away....like I said we talked everyday while I was away and she even wanted to pick me up from the airport. The day after I got back from holiday we arranged another date for next we...if it had lost momentum she wouldn't have 1) wanted to pick me uo from airport 2)Wanted to arrange a date for next week (She was the one who suggested it) thanks

I have been Dating/talking to a woman for over a month now, we have been on a few dates which have gone really well. We spoke everyday since the beginning on January up until 2 days ago. Really into each other, a lot of things in common and find one another attractive. I went away on holiday for 10 days and still we spoke/txt everyday during then. I came back from holiday last week and she even wanted to pick me up from the airport which I thought was a good sign. So she picked me up from the airport (5 days ago) and had a nice day together before she dropped me off home. We arranged another date for next week, and then continued to chat as usual. and then 2 days ago I just got the feeling something was up....communcation wasn't as strong from her part (Even though I know she's really busy with work atm) I just got a vibe that something had changed. Neither of us have been dating or talking to anyone else during the past month....so I am just confused as to this sudden change, does she feel too much pressure, is it moving too fast for her, etc...?....what could the reason be and what advice would someone who has been in this situation give? I sent a voicemail yesterday to ask if she was ok or if Id said something to upset her and I still haven't received a reply. thank you, Andy
