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

My psychologist tells me because my thoughts are based off of facts/ broken boundaries which is why I am having thoughts of am i in love , am I settling , and feeling guilty I should let him go to find someone who wouldn’t doubt him that I do not have rocd. She states rocd is intrusive , irrational thoughts not based off of real facts and I may have ptsd not ocd. He kissed someone else before we were official and he finds a certain type of female attractive that I find disgusting . So I spin about these issues all day long to the point I’m so unhappy with him and had to break up . It’s been over a month now but I’m still severely anxious and depressed The thing is I can’t stop thinking about this 24/7 with severe anxiety and depression and nothing is helping me . Can someone please tell me their thoughts

me and my girlfriend since we started dating we be only had one problem, and that is my fear of everything of losing her of her cheating, and it’s all caused by OCD. my texts are massive and i get worried i know i love her and she makes me calm i know i love her. we had a conversation yesterday and basically she said that she feels suffocated with my texts and my fears. she went on trip were she doesn’t have her phone. and yesterday i spent the entire day crying about her. my head is filled with intrusive thoughts. and last night i got so stressed that it seemed like the love went away or i couldn’t remember the love, but it’s impossible because i was crying about her yesterday. this struggle my relationship is having is making me so stressed. pls give me advice

Having a little bit of a rough morning. My boyfriend and I are finally ending long distance next month and moving in together! I’m so excited, but the big change means some ROCD and SOOCD flaring up. I also got triggered by a tik tok of a bisexual woman this morning. I’ve been ruminating about: - ending long distance and being in a more consistent routine will make me realize I don’t actually love him and that we’re not compatible - I will not like spending so much time with a man but I enjoyed a long vacation with a girl friend one time (my best friend and I took a 7 week trip to Europe after we graduated college early and I had so much fun and we hardly fought / disagreed) - if i have been suppressing my attraction to women, even though I really don’t think I have feelings for women. I admire their beauty and always have, but I truly think that’s as far as it goes - substance use ocd also came up this morning? Worrying that I will become an alcoholic / that I secretly want to drugs and drink all the time I’m also getting my period in a few days and have flair ups around this time and my ovulation time. Just looking for support 🫶🏼
