It is normal to be nervous about your new girlfriend going away for a week, and this is especially true when the relationship is fairly new.

This is the first time that your new girlfriend is going away.

Until now, you were building on your relationship, and now, there is going to be a hiatus.

This has you nervous.

Your mind is contemplating on overdrive.

Is she still going to be my girlfriend when she gets back?

Will she completely forget about me while she is gone?

What about the potentiality of her meeting someone else?

Is she going to miss me or not?

Will I cross her mind and hear from her while she is away?

How soon should I contact her?

Lots of questions are bound to assail your thoughts.

You don’t have the answers to them, as you don’t know how this is destined to play out.

Be cognizant that your mind is liable to make you doubt your relationship with her by throwing an avalanche of questions at you.

Whenever these questions are prevalent in your mind, stop them by redirecting your thoughts to unrelated subjects.

Don’t let this doubt and anxiety build up.

If you were to let it build up, you end up doing something that jeopardizes your relationship with her.

Out of anxiety, you send her too many messages, getting to the point where she worries that you are incapable of spending a day without her.

She interprets this as you being too needy, which turns her off.

You don’t realize what you are doing, given that she is responding to your initial messages.

Unfortunately, with no pushback from her, you keep messaging her in this vain.

You don’t realize that as time has gone on, you have been too nosy and overbearing.

She is now taking a little longer to respond to the messages.

Meanwhile, you are wondering why she hasn’t responded to your last message.

It has been a few hours.

So, you send another one, then another, and another.

Eventually, she is not responding at all.

Now, you are absolutely worried and nervous.

Why isn’t she responding?

You fret over the status of your relationship now that she isn’t responding.

Don’t let it get this far.

Avoid this behavior before it starts.

Being that the relationship is so new and a strong emotional bond is yet to fully develop, it would be a lot easier for her to end everything if she notices behavior that seems too needy.

As long as you don’t act like this while she is gone, rest assured your relationship will be the same when she returns.

This early into your relationship with her, you haven’t given her any reason to feel differently about you.

Meanwhile, do activities to preoccupy your time.

Activities that make you happy.

Spend more time with your friends and have fun with them.

Work on a hobby you have been ignoring.

Do whatever you can to keep yourself from thinking about your girlfriend who is away for a week.

This helps in making the week fly by.

Before you know it, she is back and you get to pick up from where you left off.
