My girlfriend is stressing.?
Me and my girlfriend have been together for almost a year now, and im always there for her when shes sick, hurt, on her period, depressed, stressed, etc. School started a couple days ago for both of us and she told me shes starting to stress out alot. I told her its just school, and i'll alwayd be there for her in school as well, i carry her books, give her hugs, and she still seems really down. I cant seem to get her to smile like i use too. She smiles with her girlfriends all the time, and and she walks over to me, the mood suddently changes. I know she loves me alot, and she cares about me just as much. It really bothers me because i dont like seeing her like this around me, it makes it harder for me to focus on school, i focus more on what i have to do for her. Shes really important to me, so i wont be leaving her if thats the answer im gona get. I can do fine with a gf and going to school, i just want to know how to help her. Should i back off a bit? Give her more time with her friends? Any help would be appreciated.

From my experience, it's because you are there for her too much. That was how my ex-boyfriend treated me, like a queen, but because of that I acted all high and mighty to him. It was weird, but that's what happened to the nice guys out there. Girls could be crazy sometimes. They want to be loved, but if it's too much they will get bored, withdraw, and create some drama. I don't think your girlfriend realized this, but there's a big possibility that's what happened.
No I don't ask you to let her down or something like that. But instead of focusing on her too much, how about if you try to divert some of your attention to yourself. Keep pay attention to her, but just decrease the dose a bit until she comes back to normal. Trust me, too much love will kill your relationship, it's like too much medicine and all of us got overdose.

Ok so you said when she walks to you she changes her mood.Ok don't take this offensively but it could be that she might like another guy and that she doesn't know how to tell you that.But just pray that its not it.It could also be that she gets too much of you and that you would need to back off for some time,sometimes a guy loves his girlfriend so much that those kisses and hugs get boring because they happen like every hour.But I think that you should ask her if there is anything that you can do to make her happy.Tell her that she's not alone,that you are there always for her.Good luck man!!!

can be a tough one when it comes to this. i am the same with my gf sometimes when my mates come up to me and i am really happy with them but when she comes i dont really have that smile anymore. could it be something under the surface that is bothering her about the relationship? girls tent to hold thought and memory with different people, so if it is a kind of intense relationship thoughts thoughts and feelings may be imprinted on the relationship but when she is with her friends she associates them with something else. my advice to you would be to simply sit down with her and talk to her be persistant with your feelings and your observations. but dont just talk to her about it, give her the time to think and some options which may be benificial to her for example ask her if she wants some time alone: i know it can be the hardestest question for the guy to and and to go through but if you let a beautifly go it will come back and love you more, if you hold it, it will die, if you know what i mean
hope this helps

Have you conditioned her, that she gets the best attention when
she is down? And maybe not so much when she is happy?
This can happen really easily. So easily in fact, that there is
a famous saying 'We teach people how to treat us'
Maybe back off on the fawning over her when she is down,
give her the be brave talk. And give her greater reward when
she is happy with you, and you have having the best of times.

It sounds like she may enjoy the attention she gets from you when she is "stressed". Though it's always nice to get some extra attention, it's not good for your relationship to become based on it. I would back off a little so she doesn't start taking you for granted.

It sounds like she is putting on a show for her friends, it might be worth just taking her out for a picnic or to the beach for a day so she can just relax and de-stress. It might be worth asking her if she wants to spend a week away from you so she can just be alone for a bit, sometimes people just need to be alone.

Take her somewhere relaxing so just the two of you can have a good conversation and tell her this.
