If she's used to you texting everyday not doing it could actually have a negative effect. Maybe decrease to one message instead of 0. What I like to do is to be the last one to message that way I can say that I was waiting for their response. You could drop her off some chocolate, candy, snacks etc and a redbox movie on her porch and send her (as your only text of the day), "Hey, I know you've been down lately and needed some space so I brought you this self-care basket. Enjoy your movie and please save me a snicker."
Low-key great. Shows you care. Shows that you pay attention. But most importantly it does that you understand her and have her back. Plus, it's great cause you'll have to go back to pick up the redbox DVD and the snicker (the redbox film is just an in. Most people don't have DVD players anymore let alone laptops that allow disks but it'll make her smile and reminisce).

I'm introverted, and if I get stressed I go into hermit mode. If people pressure me to get out of my shell, I'll retreat even more into hermit mode.
So let her know that you are there for her, and then give her some breathing room

Well a woman should be doing about 80%-90% of the initiating so you're prob smothering her. If you're not hearing from her stop contact until you do
Does she know she's your "girl friend"? Is she the one that brought up wanting to be exclusive with you?

She brought it up. She asked to be exclusive and celebrated when i told her were making official

Please focus on you and your health first. Your physical health, your mental health and your own goals and dreams must always come first.
I highly reccomend you reading The Way of the Superior man, not everything there is mandatory but there are a few golden nuggets that changed my life forever! Remember, people in general are like waves, we have tides and we sway depending on the mood of the day. So learn how to surf the waves and have fun with the process!
you will never have a relationship that is 100% perfect BUT you do deserve one that is 95% excellent with 5% being totally resolvable (little discussions or quarrels in a 3-6 month period is okay)
