Needing advice or a different point of view

2.5 years ago I meet a girl from work, we quickly connected and then become best friends. For me I started to notice stronger feelings for her about a year and a half ago. During this time I never told her as she had a boyfriend, around 3 months ago I made the decision to tell her. She then split up with a her boyfriend of 7 years 2 weeks after (they were having issues for a while) about another 2 weeks passed and she confessed she had feelings for me for a while too.

In the last 7 weeks, we have slept together, spent many nights and days together, including a trip away. We had also shared feelings and deep thoughts in this time, everything seemed to be going great. After we went away she went to see her parents( 2 hours away ) in that time she become a little less responsive of text and the conversation was very closed. I caught up with her on Thursday.

During this she told me she had been overthinking heaps about me, her ex and what she wants. She said my efforts made her nervous as she wasn’t used to the effort and the thoughtful gestures. Since then I have text her once and tried to call her to which she hasn’t responded.

Needing advice in what to do?? Or a different point of view, we have spoken every day since meeting in person or via text except the last two weeks. I can over think and get anxious, so in my head I have thought she might be back with him???

Please any advice?
