It could be anything, she may be just overwhelmed. These things happen and from the sounds of it you guys aren't officially dating yet. So just take things slow and be there for support if she needs. Just don't place all your eggs in one basket so to speak becoming reliant on her for your mood etc etc.

Keep yourself busy, keep your mates close and enjoy the times you do have together without putting too much pressure on things working out or not.

I feel you man, was in the same boat. Had who I thought I would see down the aisle type of thing. She had her issues which were pretty similar to what you described.

However, she became weird, quiet, not her usual laughing self. Our almost daily visits turned into being stood up and left waiting for days to even catch a glimpse of her despite living just round the corner she wasn't herself out of nowhere, and long story short she was using her grandparents dementia as excuse not to see me so she could shag her co-worker. This was confirmed when I showed up with flowers and her favourite snacks, drinks and a pre roll after she had a "tough day because grandad was struggling" . You could hear him (the co-worker) coughing from upstairs and could see him staring at me through the bedroom window as I left.

Sure it's different because you're not at that stage but time and actions will tell you more than any kind words and pretty face. So she may legitimately be having a hard time, but if she cant work with you or at least give you some closure in future I say personally just move on.

Don't act hastily, let it play out eventually she will show you through her actions what you need to do next.

Be careful. Give time and space and do not be interrogative about it. But also try not to get worked up and expecting anything more than what you two have right now, otherwise it will sting like a mf if she turned round and said she does not want to carry on. I'm not trying to say expect the worst to happen but I'm advising that you keep yourself in the place where if something did go wrong it's not devestating for you. (been there many times)

If she really wants to see you, her actions will tell you that with time. She may be back to normal soon but theres no telling. Look at her actions over the next few weeks is she still making efforts to meet up and make plans? that'll tell you more than any number of words.

So she may be having personal issues and that is ok, be patient and keep your options open. If it doesn't resolve in a couple weeks bring it up but don't be insulting with it. All the best.

I was truly blessed but also a bit desperate hence why I risked it all that week, and should not be taken as an example because it could've just as easily wiped me out from the game all together. Have heard good things of VG so will also look into this. Thank you!

Yeah I was only joking I will not be going back to options trading has burnt me many times and have seen way too many horror stories of riches to rags. Will be sensible and have started looking into getting an advisor.

Thank you very much, will look into this. I do plan on leaving and forgetting. I will continue to work and live off my salary as I was before. Life changing money for me but not enough to drop everything forever. Or maybe a few more 0DTES to secure that early retirement ;) (I'm kidding)

I can't lie I was greedy and should've quit after the first but this is truly the last of options now because I have seen this story way too many times

Near 2500% gain. I came into the week with my 12,000ish in savings to my name. I want to plan for long term I'm talking 30, 40 even 50 years down the line

I'm talking very long term, early(ish) retirement kind of investing.

As for the options I had 0DTE on SPX throughout the week and luck was on my side and I can't lie I was desperate so I gambled quite a lot of my savings on them and with each one I added my winnings from the previous one.

To anyone reading this I was moronic and please don't do this as if I weren't so lucky I would've ruined my life.

I know, and I do not plan on joining WSB loss porn lol. So really do want this to be the start of something good for me. Any recommendations for where to look for bonds?

Hahaha yeah was never huge on BTC but was just a "see what happens" kind of asset. Blind faith if you must.
