Peter writes, “As of late my girlfriend has been going through a stressful phase, which has resulted in her not talking much especially with me which is a little concerning. What I am asking is there anything I should do to try and help her or should I just let her figure things out herself?”
Regarding her behavior, a number of things could trigger such behavior. Stress, worry or anxiety from a variety of factors like college, family, money, etc. can be the reasons. In matters like this the best approach is to be a good listener, supportive, but not intrusive. Do not force her to talk if she does not want to but be patient and listen to her. And do not pass any judgment or give advice unless she asks for it. If she has not been talking, there is a reason: she does not feel that you can be of help.
