My soulmate is pushing me away because she's grieving her sister's impending death.

[WorriedBoyfriend]

So my other half is in America, I'm in the UK, We've been together almost 2 years. Her sister was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in November. And she went into a coma, in December. We were due to meet twice, both in Dec and then this month. Both times she had to cancel. I was upset, and Let my feelings get ahead of her, and I have since said sorry and we've talked on and off. She said she needs space as she shuts down emotionally. But when we talk, she says she loves me, so much. And that she is so in love with me. I asked her last night if she needed space still, She said "for right now, Yes. But don't go to far". What should I do ?

I know it hurts a lot when you can't be with the person you love. But it is best to respect her wishes. It is very emotional time in her life. Send her a quick text or email to say I'm thinking of you. If you need anything I am here. Send her a card or flowers. Maybe ask is it okay if I call once a week to check in on you. Acknowledge how devastating this time is for her but reassure her you still love and care about her.
