writes: Me and my girlfriend are both 19, i've had quite a few girlfriends in the past and she hasn't had any serious boyfriends. It hasn't been going very long and we have just had 3 weeks away from each other because of work and holiday, this means surely she should have missed me - which she did but now she has told me it is getting too serious for her and needs some space. I'm crazy about her and i think she feels the same back, just perhaps scared of the commitment but what is the best way to tackle the situation and what could the space signify?

 I think in this instance the space signifies nothing more than what she says. As you have observed she is probably scared and she needs the space to get her head around things. Give her that space. Keep in touch but keep it light-hearted and maybe intermittant, just ask how her day is and if you get the opportunity do little things to show her you care.
If you dont give her that space then you will most likely push her away. Although it is natural for you to worry when your feelings are so out there and on the line try to distract yourself. Hope that helps.
