Hey everyone, I could really use some advice. I’ve been seeing this girl for about a month now, and I’m feeling a bit stuck. At first, she said she wanted to take things slow, but now sometimes she moves things forward like cuddling or talking about the future and yet when I ask for clarity, she pulls back and seems confused. I’m worried about getting too attached because I don’t want to end up heartbroken if, after several months, she decides it’s not right. I guess I’m impatient and want a yes-or-no answer, but I know it’s not that simple. Has anyone dealt with this kind of mixed signal situation? She’s mentioned she’s been with a few people in the past year, so maybe it’s just her personality or she’s an overthinker. I get that people can be figuring themselves out and want to improve but I also hope she’s not playing around with me and just keeping me around for company
How do you handle giving someone space while also protecting your own feelings? Any advice would be super appreciated! Thanks!
