when my gf [19F] is confident in how she looks, she stops craving my [19M] attention

We’ve been together for about a year and a half and have been seperated for over 6 months due to long distance. Which is actually not too bad and we can both handle it okay.

Just something i’ve noticed is when she gets all dressed up and is confident in how she looks, she just stops craving my attention. But not in the sense that she’s just feeling herself i don’t think.

For example. Last night I was hanging with my friends after work just chatting it up and driving around. She typically acts very depressed a lot when i’m out doing something or enjoying myself, but I always try and update her, reassure her, help her through whatever she’s going through. Sometimes she’ll like say she’s going to head to bed or something and it’s like 10pm.

Today she had plans with one of her friends, she puts on a buttload of makeup, dresses up, and curls her hair. This isn’t a problem, like yes feel confident, look good if that’s what makes you feel good. She just basically stops communicating with me, like a lot. not in the sense that i’m being straight ignored, but enough to realize that maybe i’m just an emotional stabilizer or something.

Just the contrast between when I go and enjoy myself to when she goes and enjoys herself just kind of feels unfair and like i’m some tool used to balance her emotional wellbeing.

Idk, but i’m also not making myself feel bad about it. Just kinda picking up some annoying patterns here. Thanks!
