It's good that you're giving her the space that she's asked for. If you appear needy to her, it'll make you less attractive in her eyes. Try to better yourself instead of thinking on her. Do something new, maybe like working out? But be proud of yourself. Someone asked me for space too. Sometimes it's hard to provide it but I've held out for over a week, and I feel good about myself because of it.

She wants space and you have to respect that. BUT you also get to decide what you want from a relationship, and if the space is making you miserable and the relationship no longer seems worth it, you have every right to walk away.

FYI, you don't have to be okay with that. I once had a BF decide he needed a break after a month. I told him either we ARE or ARE NOT in a relationship, because I wasn't going to put my life on pause for someone who wasn't infatuated with me. So, if this is someone who really matters to you...do your thing. But a break is a break. Feel free to date around and live life. There are a lot of amazing fish in the sea.

I really appreciate your guys responses. It helps a lot knowing people are experiencing the same thing. I’m working on 2 days and it’s tough right now but I know it’ll get better. She does contact me every once in a while and I usually keep it short and sweet

Obsessing over coworker for months OCD
You know when you have weird thoughts about a coworker and because you have OCD these thoughts really stick and you panic and feel sick? Yeah that’s me and I’ve struggled with having intrusive thoughts about my coworker and now he just got in a relationship with my coworker and my intrusive thoughts are WORSE I thought they would be better? And initially they were because I was relieved that he couldn’t be weird with me now because he has a girlfriend. But this is the thought that i cannot get over- my OCD is like you’re jealous that he doesn’t like you and he’s not with you instead and i envy this girl he is with. Why the fuck am I having these thoughts while I’m in a healthy relationship and love my boyfriend to DEATH- like I know he is my forever. I couldn’t look at him today because I’ve been obsessing over this thought I’ve had in work and now I have to find a new job I hope no one will judge me for these thoughts or maybe someone has had this weird thought before? :(

Worried about not being anxious?
These past few days I was fine. Minimal intrusive thoughts ,no anxiety etc(to add I'm on medication so maybe it's starting to work although it barely is 2 weeks) and today I got a sudden wave of anxiety and it started latching on some thoughts like" what if I'm in denial and I wanna break up with my bf? And what if erp doesn't work for me because I actually wanna break up with my bf?" But they didn't really stay long usually those thoughts would make me spiral for days or so, now they lasted for some hours. And now I'm trying to trigger myself into being anxious again because if I don't it means I don't have ocd and if I don't have ocd it means I don't love my bf and if I don't love my bf it means I have to break up. Idk if it makes sense but the lack of anxiety makes me wonder if I actually have ocd or not.

Please I need replies
These thought make me doubt my self so much it makes me think that the thoughts are real and it’s not my ocd I just want to be my old self I didn’t think about anything I can’t looks at the same gender because then my brain tells me I like them. But I just don’t want to lose my girlfriend I love her so much she’s the one who cures my ocd when am with her I don’t think about anything
