How we deal with our misunderstandings is the focus of this community. Join us to find support, get advice, and share your experience with your relationship.
I met my girlfriend in late November and we "officially" began dating in may, may 1st to be exact. So about a month ago she told me she loved me and I said it back and I truly meant it.
Things are going great, we don't fight except for little things here and there "couple stuff" as people say, we see each other every day with a few exceptions. But the last couple of weeks I've been thinking that I like her too much or I'm too in love with her. Is that crazy?
I don't think things are moving to fast I inf act think we have taken things slow and that's one reason things are going so well. I guess what I'm getting at is that I've never felt this way about a girl before and it scares me because I really don't know if I could take it if things went bad. If something were to happen that made it so her and I weren't together I don't know what I would do I don't know what would happen to me and the not knowing is what is so scary. Like I said things are going great but I guess at 22 years old forever is a very long time and I have a hard time wrapping my head around the thought of always being with her. I know that sounds terrible but this is also my first real relationship and this is just all very new to me.
I am trying not to worry about things that don't matter and live my life to the fullest. But some things just way on me like this.
Even if you don't post to this, thank you so much for taking a few minuets to even read.

Continue to make time for each other, to keep the fires of passion burning. And keep honestly communicating. Try not to let the head interfere with the heart.
I really should be taking my own advice here, but I think that you need to try and enjoy what you have while you have it. If you continue to worry about what MIGHT happen too much, chances are that it actually will happen.
But I understand about not knowing. Things would be much easier if we DID know what was going to happen in five years. But how boring would that be? :)
This is so hard but I thanks everyone, I remember when I signed up no here a while ago it was for loneliness causes by isolating myself from so many things as well as anxiety and depression because I was about to be finish school and I was scared about the future
I feel like I have changed, I'm not completely where I want to be but I'm getting there. Everyone here is so helpful and I never thought a bunch of strangers could impact my life like you all have.
I hope everyone is well, and continues to do so.
