writes: I have been engaged now for 18 months and we plan to marry in two months. We have maintained a heathly relationship over the long distance of the Altantic ocean. There is aways a little awkwardness when we see each other for the first couple of days. However, this time she is acting very cold, she shows no affection or intimacy towards me. We tried to talk and she said it is because she has to become another person when I leave. The more I try to make things normal and show affection, the worse it becomes. What should I do? Should I just give her time and space?

Hey there
Maybe your girlfriend just finds it a bit hard to cope with having this long distance relationship thing going on.. They are really hard but you have got to have plenty of trust for each other and you also have to deal with the fact that you will not get to see them so much as any other couple who live in the same area..
Im sure you know all of this but this could also be making your girlfriend the way she is because she knows she is going to have to go back to the normal person when you leave.. She just misses you so much when you are not around..
I agree with the other answer there, you should really talk about how you are feeling with her, see if she wants time and space, you may find it is a bit more than that..
Good Luck
Best Wishes

It sounds like there's something going on with her. She might be reconsidering the relationship, and she needs to be fair to you and let you know her intentions. Ask her if she's committed, if she loves you, and if she's happy in the relationship. Make sure she sounds genuine when she's answering you. Good luck!
