My girl is going through a hard time.?

Question

My girlfriend is going through a hard time right now, her mother is having heart problems and her car just quit on her. I want to be there for her, but she has kinda blocked me out. She wants me to give her space and time to get through this. Does some girls do this to thier boy friends? What can I do during this time? She told me not to call her, but she said she'll call me. Since she told me that, she called me several times. But why does she do that? At some nights she'll go and hang out with her friend and then go staright into her third shift job. It bothers me that she picks her firends to help her through this, but not me.
Do some girls do this when they are going through hard times? What can I do to be a supportive BF? Should I worry about me and her? Should I worry that I might be losing her? Is this normal? I need some female advice.

Answer 1

usually when i'm stressed out, i don't want my bf around either, just because i don't want to snap at him cause i'm in a crappy mood. just reassure her that you are there for her when she is ready to talk

Answer 2

It sounds like you are being supportive by doing as she asks. The next time you see her or call tell her how you feel about her hanging with friends instead of you. Offer to help her get her car fixed. You could send her some flowers and that way she will know that you are thinking of her. Write down some supportive Bible verses that will offer her encouragement for her mom. I dont think you need to worry. We woman can push for space at times..

Answer 3

Everyone is different. Some people want to cry on their bf's shoulder, some want to be strong and work out their own issues. All you can really do is tell her that you care and that you're here for her, and take her words at face value. I hope it works out for you both.

Good luck.
