Standoff or status quo? When you mentioned "things will always
remain" as they were, are you referring to the current stalemate
situation that you are both facing?
Ok, you may not like giving advice, but your girlfriend probably
thought that didn't mean you should remain helplessly silent after
she has poured out her woes. Words of consolation could help
sometimes. There are instances when silence could be misinterpreted
as lack of concern, or of comprehension, or both. As your
girlfriend, does she know that you are not one to offer advice or
solace?
This could be just a simple case of misunderstanding, one in which
both your intentions and her expectations have been misunderstood.
Or it could hint at a more serious implication of incompatibility
between two personalities. Whatever it is, perhaps you should try
calling her up or out to clarify things?
Like you've said, we could give you all kinds of advice, but the
choice is ultimately... yes, yours.
