Towards end of February her business started doing quite badly and as a result she was quite moody and distant towards me. She apololised for this and I thought nothing more of this.Beginning of March she called me and said she was sorry for being a bitch towards me and for taking things out on me, she just needed a break to make business work, because if she doesn't she'll be finished. She had to get through the next month or so. I asked her if it was a permanent break she wanted and she replied no and said she loved me and that she'd contact me.I totally understand her needs, so about 10 days later I dropped her a text to see how she was doing and she replied. Which is good sign.So my question is, do you think she was gently brushing me off? and if not, how much space should I give her? I have really strong feeling for her and miss her very much.Should I move on, or wait for her. Thanks very much in advance.

If her business is going under then she'll definitely be worried and want to put all her efforts into making it successful again. She'll be stressed out to the max just now in case her business goes under so I would hang in there. I don't think she's brushing you off at all, she just wants a bit of time to get her livelihood in order and if you have feelings for her then I would respect her wishes and let her get her head around it all. Let her know if you can help in any way at all then you're there for her, she only has to call. At least that way she doesn't have to worry about her relationship with you going down the drain too.
Just be patient with her and hang in there...
Eve
