her last text was " i just need some time. i dont want to hurt you but it seems off" i reminded her that our talks usually help bring her out of her tailspin and that its normal for couples to have off days. i said i love you and i will always be there for you. she hasnt responded since.
Sounds like you still have some learning to do in the validation department.
what would be a better response? something like it must be difficult for you that it feels off?
I was really caught off guard and emotions took over and i ended up reacting instead of responding.
