What should I do in my situation?
My girlfriend of 3 months have been really distant recently. She only text me like 2 lines and those lines are only consisting of like 1-4 words. It's been like this for 2 weeks. I miss being close to her. I don't want to tell her that I have been sad because of that. I told her that I doubted her motives recently too and I apologized for that, and she told me I am overthinking.
1. How do I get my girlfriend to be as close as she used to be? (She used to text me and our conversations were long and puts lots of smiley faces :), and she used to be very affectionate)
2. How do I make myself not feel sad because of my girlfriend being distant?
3. How do I get her to feel the spark like she did in the beginning?
4. Am I being unreasonable for thinking she doesn't want to be with me anymore? I feel like she haven't been making much time for me anymore, and I've been sad.
5. If I tell her that I miss being close to her, would that make her think I am clingy?
Recently, I am the only one that start to text her. She never start texting me first anymore. :-(

Hey, sorry to hear how sad you are. It's hard when someone you care about pulls away - and you do deserve to know what's wrong. That's mature and fair and you are trying hard to communicate your feelings.
If she's said you're overthinking then it's possible she's not got issues with you but is feeling low in general and needs some space.
But she also needs to cut you some slack as you have feelings too and right now you're confused and hurt.
I'd tell her you miss her and say ' I'm concerned as this is not like you and I'm worried as I care about you'. that's an honest and neutral statement as you are not putting anything out there except that you have noticed she's not herself.
Leave it up to her to decide if she's going to open up - sadly if she doesn't want to you can't make her.
Give her some space, and do things that make you happy. See your friends and keep busy - one of two things will happen:
She will open up and things will go back to the way they were or she will remain distant.
You are high value and deserve a happy girl and you can demonstrate that by letting her see that although you care you also have good things happening in your life aside from her.
You sound like a sweet guy and I'm wondering if she's not mature enough for the kind of relationship you want.
Good luck and retain your high value so she can see what she's missing out on!!! Xx
EDIT: if she's not texting you back STOP contacting her immediately. It hurts I know, but you are dealing with a little girl who isn't being respectful. Try not to think about her - btw - there's another girl out therexsomewhere who'd love to be your girl one day. Remember that cause you deserve better! You deserve sweet and caring back.
She's playing mind games so outwit her by refusing to be part of it anymore. She will either drop out of your life completely or she'll start contacting you. Either way, you have done your bit. Be strong xx

Let me start off by saying that in ANY relationship COMMUNICATION & HONESTY is the key to EVERYTHING. If you're feeling a certain way, you should politely tell her about it and see how she feels. At this moment, you have no idea whats going through her head. She can be feeling the same way you're feeling & you don't even know it.
The answer to all your problems is communication and honesty. Tell her what you feel, see what she feels and just go on from their. If you don't talk, assumptions will be made and things will continue getting worse. Don't be afraid to say what you feel, if she doesn't care then its her loss but if you don't talk you won't know.
& How to keep from feeling sad about your GF? simple, find things to do like maybe get hobbies or something to keep your mind busy. Go out with your friends or maybe read a book, those simple things help me a lot.
Goodluck!

This is THE truth and do what I say and she will be back, call this the only usefull answer on yahoo if you want.
You are being to clingy! girls are turned off by clingy guys and they instictively push away from them to test them and understand their strength. Secretly all girls love to dominated. Not to say have their rights violated but just be protected in essence and if she is the one who has to protect you, from missing her love, then she will leave you cold in a puddle.
Dont send her ANYMORE TXTs and when she msgs you, use short words to respond and then say you have to go before you actually get anywhere in the convo. Do this for 3 weeks AT LEAST. She WILL start to come back, but beware! you cant jump back on as soon as she starts coming back your way. She has to follow you and then run after you. Do this and I give you my word she will come back. The most important thing is be confident and keep something like this in your head.
I am independent from everyone else and my own thoughts are unique. If someone wishes to live in a reality that isnt mine, they are truely missing out and you will not be concerned with them...something like that. I have always hated when people say 'just be confident' but I know that you know what confidence looks like. Just fake it and try to believe it. seriously. think about this. How did you take your first shot? you just had to do it. same thing...Go
Disclaimer. Do not be mean to her that is not attractive. just be indifferent. Got it go

This is normal in a relationship from my experience at the start we were with each other all the time, we text alot sometimes talking about absolutely nothing and as time went on and the whole year passed we settled down we still talk but its not like it was at the start. We still see each other but not as much as we did at the start. It's normal to feel like your losing your partner if this happens and your not used to it as its a change and change is scary! But i think if you just sit down and tell her how your feeling and that you understand things are just settling down and your scared about the change. Im sure she will be quick to reassure you that things will be ok. :) i hope this helps

Well distance does make the heart grow fonder. I personally have been in your shoes before my friend and It sucked but my dad told me this and it actually worked. Just go without talking to her for a couple days and she would come around. if not and it really bugs you then sit down with her and explain how you feel. And if none of that works then they're is always more fish in the sea.

If she thinks your clingy, than she doesn't like you all that much. People that are really into each other can text all day long and share everything. So stop messaging her and let her message you. If she doesn't, then you know your answer.

Well to get your mind of it develop new Hobbies or do something to keep you busy. I think she might not be interested in you shes not responding pretty much and she never talks to you. She is losing interest. Maybe do something fun with her to charge her up again like a Battery.

Sucks but girls start losing interest and will start to slowly end their relationship because they think nothing will happen anymore between you
