Ok well back in my high school days. (Last year) my first ever gf dumped me for a guy she talked to on the computer and never met before. Ok yea that hurt me and it took me a while to get over. Now Im in University, i have a clean slate. Well the first few weeks were awsome. Met this girl, she said she liked me so we started to go out. It's now been about a month and a half and yesterday after i finished work we were suppose to hang out. She texted me later saying *something came up and she might run alittle late*. I thought ok not a big deal. Then it became 11 o'clock and i was bored out of my mind and she texted me again saying *I don't think ill make it tonight, ill explain tomorrow . I am sorry*. So i texted her back and asked her if anythnig was wrong. I then went to sleep at about 11:30 cause well i was bored and nothing to do. I planned this romantic night out and everything and well yea nothing. Then I get a texted saying along the line "I need to be honest with you, i need to be alone tonight and clear my head. I feel overwhlemed right now with everything and i feel like i want to be single but i don't* That came as a great shock to me and i couldnt sleep all night. She has a job and told me she started gettin gmore hours, and this is our frist year at uni so maybe she's just stressed. I texted her back saying something like *well im sorry you feel that way but im sure you cna make it through this*. I don't know i feel so cheap right now. Everytime i get somethnig going and start to be happy in life something gets in my way. Im sick of it, i always ask myself am I not suppose to have what i want, and am i ever going to have what i want sometimes. I don't know i really connect with my gf like any other and i don't wanna lose her. But maybe i should let her go think for a while and if she really cares she'll come back. Im sorry im just venting right now. Im just in a mix of depression and being pissed. I don't know where to turn. Thnaks

Sounds like the girl really is overwhelmed!

I've just started uni too - it's basically a free-for-all singles night with everyone trying to pair up before the term starts. I'd give her the space she needs and just be there for her. She hasn't blown you off - I used that line of 'needing space' on my current and only boyfriend no end of times before we started dating seriously. He was my first too, so I was equally as confused.

I'd give it time, best of luck!
