What To Do If Your Girlfriend Says She Needs Space

First of all, you've probably heard most experts say you should give it to her, and go no-contact for about a month. This is, unfortunately, bad advice in most cases. So now I will set it straight for you.

The first important thing to realize is that if things were going great and progressing toward a blissful life-long marriage, she would NOT be asking for space. This ask is a sign of something that is not right. “Space” is like a numbing drug. It will make the problems fade into memory, and the constant irritation will cease for a while. If you get a tooth ache, do you take heroin and hope the problem goes away? No! You go to the dentist and fix the problem. Giving space, in most cases, is like taking heroin for a tooth ache.
