Thanks man! I was thinking about backing off but it didn't make sense to me as to where her confusion was coming from. I thought it would be best to talk about it yet I didn't bring it up she did while she was cuddled up to me it was weird she started crying and I asked her what was up and we figured it out from there.

I've gone through the exact same thing.

Go no-contact. Don't cheat. When she contacts you, just repress your inner-AFC and start being more unpredictable. Be more impulsive and keep her guessing. Mixed signals, push-pull. the usual. The best thing you can do for your relationship is to give her the very space she is requesting. It'll cause her to second guess herself and instill a fear of loss. She won't value you properly until she no longer has you.

I call bullshit on the whole 'I was drugged' story.

"I need space" is just chick speak for 'I'm in the process of nexting you'.

It means you fucked up big time and need to BACK THE FUCK UP else your done. Even if she changes her mind a week later. For me it would be a 3 week next MINIMUM. You need to instill some FEAR back into the woman. She needs to feel what its like to LOSE YOU. Then make her WORK to get you back. You can't just come and go at her whim.

COuld be her attraction for you has dipped so low she's ready to ditch you. Start seeing her less, get busy with other things. Give her the gift of missing you.

And the #1 rule of ANY relationship: You MUST be closer to the door than she is. Or at LEAST she should think you are.

I wrote a post on this a while ago I think will be useful for you:

rough operations response in a nutshell is prepare for the worst but work for the best. If she was cheating on him i doubt he would be so happy with the "babe lets talk this through" game. Ive been down both paths at this point in my life. Keep your options open but your interests true
