What's going through a women's mind/feelings when they "want to be alone"?

[Learning]

This question can't really be answered in a general sense as all situations and people are different but I was wondering just what exactly is going through a woman's wind when they want to be alone? Some of the situations I've been through and have talked to women about have confused me.
What are they feeling? What are they thinking? Maybe some women can answer this too? Why the need to be alone?

how should we know?? we're guys!

who knows what their thinking

generally, i reckon it means, that they are upset, and unsure what to do at the present time. so they need time to chill out, space out, and think about stuff

its not good to approach a women in this state, and just best to avoid them until they're ready

thats my take on it, good luck getting women's opinions on this board

I know. That's why I ask. This stuff fascinates me.

lordson has a point. if she wants space, give her space. she'll come looking for you after. if you do wait for her.
