if your gf/bf doesnt text you or talk to you for a week then

I've been in a 7 year relationship and there were only two times when this happened and both times we had some pretty intense discussions.

Did they stopped talking to you without warning? or did you have some fight or something?

2nd case, it's normal, people need time to heal, in fact to be in touch when mad at someone can make things worse.

1st case... damn IDK, why dont you ask them why they stopped talking to you?

they said they wanted to talk less.a few months ago. which they did, but not by a huge amount, talking daily--> talking most of the week, 1 or 2 days of no texting became common.

I understand, I had also felt smothered when the only chat we had was

"hey how are you"
"what are you doing"

because I felt that we were talking only for the sake of talking, do I explain myself?

I wanted more time for me, to do whatever I wanted, play games, take a walk to the park, read, be with me and only me.

Then, I started talking again, we had meaningful things to talk about and our relationship has been great since then.

Maybe that's what they need - some time alone, I could relate to that. Of course this doesn't mean they are not interested in you anymore, but that they feel frustrated with something.
Anyway, my best advice is to talk directly about this, why they wanted and How can both of you improve your relationship. Communicating is the best way to sort those obstacles in our lives

my ex did this to me, i thought she was ghosting me, i had a go at her, and she got really pissed off with me and the relationship basically ended. i tried apologizing and talking to her but she completely ignored me. i over reacted but tbf she could of said something.

Pretty much this. It's important to have space periodically. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. OP, you should take to him/her about this so you're on the same page.

hmm the week before they told me they were coming back next week and can probably hangout so i guess ill see then

they also texted goodmorning and goodnight daily, but wanted to stop that as it got repetitive.

well they said the reason to talk less was because they didnt have much to talk about so pretty much exactly what you were saying

were did they go?

To me they just want some space for themselves.
They're also showing they care about you greeting you everyday and night. This means you are very present in their mind.

are they on a trip? If so wait until they come back, and several days later talk about this, how you feel and how they feel

no they stopped greeting daily. they said it explicity that they wanted to. told me not to worry. the went away for school.

Sounds like the week of silence was evidence it was over, while your irritation just gave her a handy pretext/irritated her enough to act on her impulse.
