writes: My girlfriend of several months has decided to take a break and needs some space. I was a rebound guy and we moved pretty fast, so this makes sense to me. But I am still interested, and wonder what I should do in the intern and how I might get her back once she's cleared her head.

The answer really is you don't try and get her back.
Send her a message and say that you hope she's ok and to get in touch when she's ready.
Then wait for her to get in touch with you - just don't put your life on hold waiting for her.

The best way to cope is to START SEEING OTHER WOMEN.
When a partner asks for space, it is there way of saying:
"Find someone else, and dump me, because I haven't the heart to dump you first"
Being with someone they love is NOT a burden. It helps them through the tough times. Wanting to get away from that is just a Red Flag.
Part of getting her back is for her to see that other women desire you.

I would not put pressure on her. Send the occasional email or phone call to let her know you are thinking about her. But by no means pine ceaselessly after her. That will only drive her away. Sometimes the best thing to do is let her know you still care.

Constantly monitor her under your radar for any changes in her lifestyle. Get to talk to her by phone or any means of communications to keep the fire going.
