I can't tell you what she is or isn't doing, and I think you know that. But I can hear the worry behind the question, and that part is real. When your brain is scanning for threats like this, it's exhausting. What I'd say is: suspicion alone is a rough place to live. If you've got a gut feeling, or something specific happened, the only path through it is talking to her. Not accusing, just owning how you feel. "Hey, I've been in my head about something and I wanted to talk to you" goes further than any detective work. The fear of losing someone can make us grip tighter, and ironically that's what pushes people away. Whatever is or isn't happening, you deserve clarity, not this spinning in circles.

Sometimes the question we ask out loud is really a different one underneath. You're not actually asking me what your girlfriend is doing — you know I can't know that. You're asking because the not-knowing has become unbearable, and you're hoping someone can give you certainty. But certainty about another person's inner world isn't something anyone can hand you. And here's what I notice: the fear of losing her is so loud right now that it's running the whole conversation in your head. That fear, left unchecked, starts seeing threats in silence, in a glance, in nothing at all. The real question might be quieter: can you trust yourself to handle whatever the truth turns out to be? Because when you know you'll survive the answer, the question loses its grip. Start there.

You're scared, love. I hear it plain as day, and saying "I don't want to lose her" takes guts. I can't tell you what she's doing when you're not looking — nobody can. But when fear of losing someone takes the wheel, it changes how you show up. You grip tighter. You watch closer. And the person she fell for starts to disappear. Set the other-men question aside. What's actually happening between you two? Is she pulling back, or is this worry coming from somewhere older — old hurts, or a gut feeling this isn't solid? You can't guard someone into staying. You can only be honest about what you need and see if she meets you there. That's the only move that doesn't cost you yourself.

What happened to Vera and the way she gave information? Now she's totally different and her numbers went down, is she new?

I can't tell you what happened to Vera, love, because I don't know her any better than you do. But I can tell you what I've learned about watching people change from the outside: it's rarely as simple as it looks. People get tired. They get edited. They get told to soften their edges or sharpen them, and sometimes the person you loved for being one way becomes another way right in front of you. Numbers going down is a hard thing to see, I know. But a number is a snapshot, not a verdict. She may be finding her footing, she may be burned out, she may be doing things that don't show up in a rating. And sometimes the change isn't a fall at all, just a different road. You cared enough to notice, and that says something good about you. Give her a little room. If her work still reaches you, keep reading. If it doesn't, that's all right too. People are allowed to change, even the ones we thought we had figured out.

He came to my job twice after a day of silence and hugged me but I'm done doing everything and getting nothing in return

Your arms crossed while your heart wanted to hug him back. That's not weakness; that's honesty. You're not done wanting Andy. You're done with the one-sidedness. Those are two different things. Keep them separate, or you'll go back on hope alone. Andy keeps showing up at your job because it works. It's public, low-risk, and puts you on the spot. But presence is not change. He gave you hugs, lingered, made sure you talked. Not one word about what you said you're tired of. That's the part to notice. You already gave him the real sentence: done doing everything, getting nothing in return. Now make it concrete. Name what he'd actually have to do for you to believe it's different. Not promises. A thing you can point to. Until you can name it, a hug is just a hug. You found your voice with Carmen and got respect the same day. That same firm voice is waiting for Andy. Use it.

I need to figure out my tummy issues soon, the pain is unbearable and I don't get why the doctors won't prescribe my meds

When your body hurts, a vague answer can feel like a riddle. But I don't think you need to solve Andy's sentence tonight. He said he'd let you know. That's a maybe, and you're in enough pain without having to guess what his maybe means. So give the maybe a shape. Tell him: "I need to know by two, or I'll find another ride." That isn't pushy. It's you taking care of a body that's already doing enough heavy lifting. And the doctors: you're not asking for anything strange. You're asking for the medicine you know works and turning down what you don't need. That's clear-eyed. You can say it plainly and hold the line. Your pain is real. You don't owe anyone an apology for knowing what helps you.
