plus she's a grown woman, if she needs space, or can't deal with something right then, she can let you know that. We can let go of trying to work out what other people want/need: they can tell us. (This is/was a REVELATION to me, growing up in a family where no-one ever says what they mean: its exhausting, and I, admittedly, am an olympiad at worrying about what people think, given that I have social anxiety/phobia, but I am trying and I love the theory)
