She went on a film shoot for work for 2 weeks and she warned me that she might not be able to be in touch much as it will be intense and all day. I texted her something nice halfway through and she responded to say sorry she hasn’t been in touch much it’s really intense and she’ll need to hibernate when she’s back.

She got back and it was radio silence so I messaged and we had a brief chat where she basically said she’s exhausted and has stuff to catch up on so won’t be able to come to an event with me a few days after she got back as originally planned. She said she had a lot of fun on the trip though and she got a bit ill and it was stressful but they all bonded so well and it was the best film experience she’s had.

To be fair its only been a few days so I do think its just me being anxious and overthinking. My gut instinct says I just need to trust her and give her space so that’s what I plan to do.
