Stang_Crazy:

She's 18 and obviously afraid that she may be 'missing out on something' by commiting to you in the way you've commited to her. That 's normal. Guys aren't the only ones afraid of real commitment and at 18, she's probably a little bit scared that she's getting trapped before she's had a chance to live a little.

Her not talking to you about this probably comes from her not really knowing what she feels or wants at this point so she's simply avoiding having to deal with the situation (i.e. you).

I doubt it's all about you but more about her feeling that she's not had a chance to experience other guys and live a bit. Nothing you can do about it, really, except be patient and let her know you didn't mean to pressure her.

You may not think you have but evidently, she does. All those messages must have been a bit much for her.

Don't go off the deep end; life isn't over. She may very well come back to you but you have to let her find her way back on her own, you can't force it. Let her breathe.

I hope it works out for you.

Let us know, but stay cool for awhile and don't do anything crazy. Things change.
