Hi, I'm on my phone so this won't be neat. I'll generalize this situation as much as possible. Basically, I left my girlfriend because I was going through extremely hard times and didn't communicate with her. I didn't cheat on her, but I ignored her and made her feel like she wasn't worth it. I've since then realized how much I enjoyed being with her and what I value in a relationship and figure. I apologized to her and explained why I did what I did, etc. We've been seeing each other once a week and everything slowly seems to get better. I'm affectionate, she is, we converse, everything is civil. She gives good signs and says things that hint at the future. The problem I'm facing is the 5 days between that hang out. She seems very distant and is fishing for a response out of me. I tried to initiate a date this week, she says she's available for the weekend and then says it has to wait for after the weekend. I keep finding that our communication is terrible over text and I have to try extra hard to get a response from her. I dealt with this last night and I just let it go and haven't replied to her. She also says she's bored sometimes or posts things like " looking for someone to do x with hmu". We have an event coming up next week for 3 days and now with this stalemate going on and how I've been perceiving her actions, I don't know if I can keep playing her game. Is this just what I'm going to have to deal with until she comes around or do I need to be less available as far as communication goes until we approach the day we hang out? She's younger than me and feel like she's just playing a game. Do I put my foot down or ride it out until she comes around? I don't want to come off as bothered, but I'm not in the position to have my emotions played with.
