What do girls actually need when they ask for some space to figure things out?
To be left completely alone, honestly. No phone calls, emails, texting, sending messages by others, none of that. Wave or speak if you see her in public, but don’t approach. More than likely she is making a decision about where your relationship will go from here. If you don’t heed the “need space” request, you can be sure you’ve put one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. It will annoy the mess out of her.
