Question Hiii, i really, really hope you can answer me. Help is greatly appreciated.
have this guy who I'm really into. But there are some issues.
First of all, we've been talking for two months. I really like him and I think he likes me, but I'm not sure if we're going to go any where. A little while ago I asked him where he sees us going and he said, "I see us going further." But, I haven't seen any progress.
I don't know if he was trying to pacify me or if he really meant it. He texts me every day and makes the effort to see me every weekend. When we're together, it's just flashing lights for me. We ACT like a couple when we're together.
I just don't know what's going on. And I've opened up to him a bit, but I'm afraid to open up fully for two reasons:
1) Because of a bad relationship in the past.
2) I don't want to over whelm him.
What do I do?
Answer Ally Cat,
You're having trouble opening up because of past relationships, and it's fully normal. What you need to realize is that, not every new relationship will be like your old ones. If you're hesitant about it, go slow with it.
If I were you, I'd talk to him about your feelings, and let him tell you yours. If you don't want to overwhelm him, then don't tell him too much too fast, let it progress slowly.
It seems like you're really into him, so be happy, smile, and look alive. Don't let life pass you by and let past feelings get in the way of new ones.
