thanks everyone for the replies, cookies, i failed to mention that we didnt make our relationship physical until the trip..maybe that had something to do with it but im confused because she is the one who opened up so fast to me and she was "smothering" me (although i had no problem with that), and than overnite she changed her mind about our relationship, it wasnt a gradual thing the only time we talked about our relationshhip since the trip, she said "be patient with me, and if you dont feeling like being patient and sticcking around, i wont force you to", whats that supposed to mean? but i have been maintaining light contact with her, mostly thru emails..she came down to our campus to visit some people a couple weeks ago and we only hung out for 2 hours HNICBJ

i was seeing this girl for about 3 months and everything was cool..we spent a ridiculous amount of time together for the entire relationship..about 2 weeks into seeing her, SHE suggests that we take a vacation together this summer; and we do. during the last leg of the trip, she starts to act very weird and started to distance herself from me..when we got back home, she maintained contact with me, but our relationship definitely bcame a plutonicc one..she told me she just felt like she "needed her space" and to be patient with her.. so i geuss i have two questions for the females on this board: 1. is saying you "need your space" a nice way of breaking up (permanently), or does it really mean you want to spend less time with a guy for a while and things might eventually get back to normal? 2. is the fact that she said "be patient" a sign of hope, or i am i fighting a lost cause? thanks, for your time HNICBJ
