I know going silent is the most likely approach but I feel this situation is different than the typical busting stories because we both acknowldge that we still deeply love each other and we're 8hrs away. Thoughts??
I also feel like this is maybe different in that I essentially ended things with her. And now after mos of being apart, I want her back. I struggle with 2 approaches:
1) She now knows how I feel. That I've changed my view on kids and want them with her. She took a week to think about it and replied no. Maybe just going silent and giving her more time to think is the way to go. If she wants to move forward with that scenario, she'll reach out to let me know.
2) Now that she knows how I feel, I should continue to communicate with her to show her my intentions are real and not made in a moment of loneliness. Reach out occasionally with small talk in hopes that she eventually can't envision a future without me.
Approach 1 is what my gut says, but she's got a super stressful few weeks of school related stuff ending next Sat (feel like I should check in to see how things went) and a bday on the 19th.
