Falling apart

[Noonespeciall]

My girlfriend(F19) and I(M18) have been together for just under 11 months. About two months after we started dating she told me about a camp in America (we live in Australia) shed applied for a few weeks before she met me. She got in. The next eight months went by really quick and our relationship just kept getting better, we had our little fights but we both loved each other and planned on moving in together when she came home. We've even talked about kids and getting married. She's been way for 5 weeks now and the first two weeks she was travelling and despite the 12 or more hour time difference, we talked through text message as much as possible, probably 4-5 hours a day. But since she's started the camp we can't/don't talk as much.i tried to keep the conversation up, but the longer she was at camp the more distant she seemed and The less we talked. I reminded her of our promises to stay loyal and let each other know how we feel. I tried to find out what was up and told her that we can do this, but she told me she's having the time of her life over there and when she starts having to much fun or gets carried away she has to keep reminding herself, she's got me, waiting for her to come home, and that it's frustrating. I asked why it was frustrating and she just told me it didn't matter and Sh had to go. J couldn't make heads or tales of it so I messaged her best friend to see if she knew what was going on, but she didn't know. Last night she messaged me and said "she doesn't know what to do anymore,it's so hard being away from me and she loves me with all her heart, but being away and distracted causes her to forget about me. And that she's been away a month and she's noticed how distant we've become, that she knows it entirely her fault(it's not) that she's busy and preoccupied and for the first time in almost a year she's made new friends. Then she told me that our relationship came on so fast it was almost rushed, but that she doesn't regret any of it, that she loves me with every inch of her body, but it's so hard be away from me and she's never been so tired in all her life, she's mentally, physically and emotionally drained and everyday starts as a struggle, and she finds herself thinking about how to talk to me and tell me how's she's feeling and that we have to more months to get through and she can guarantee its gonna get harder, but if I'm willing to fight for her and give her the space she needs we can make this work.
