...nerves are good, it means you really do care-just don't let them rule you-go with each moment, and enjoy him for what and who he is...keep it light and loving, you're doing great...those butterflies and worries?...all part of a real relationship....one other thing, the smoking?...make him aware of the fact that you worry about his health, but whatever you do-don't harp on it...I smoke, it and cookies are my only vices ...I get very irritated when someone gets on me about either topic...my life, my lungs...short & sweet, it's touchy-so go easy sweetheart...

Good luck Johanna, there's some really good advice here. I understand exactly where you're coming from, insecurities bred from past experiences are the reason I find it so hard to trust, and have created problems that didn't need to exist. Please don't make the same mistakes I have...it sounds like you have met a good man. I'm sure it will all work out fine if you relax a little and just enjoy living in the moment. :love:

You're afraid that your past experiences will repeat themselves which is a natural response but things can and do happen differently. Maybe think about being happy that those other relationships didn't work out because now you're with the "right" person. If you believe that what you put out into the world returns to you, try to make sure that you're thinking positive thoughts about the relationship continuing instead of the fearful ones. :love:

Ditto . . .

.... I and my boyfriend love each other very much, we have a lot of plans to do together
this summer. We are seeing each other everyday and miss each other if we can't be
together. So why I am so afraid that he is gonna leave me or break up. He is busy with all kind
of things sometimes. Now he fixes his boat and tomorrow it should be ready. If he don't call me
in many hours I immediately get the feeling that now he has left me. Oh no he always call me and
said his been busy and then tell me that he love me. We have been dating for almost two
months and last Sunday I was and visited his relatives with him and all went well. And today I was with him when he picked up his car from the car maintenance. He called if I can come and pick
him up and drive him to the place where his car was. So I did. He told me couple of days ago that he's gonna give me the key to his apartment. Wow next step into our relationship. I almost live with him already when I spend so much time in his apartment.

I wish this weird feeling I have could go away but I still have it. Hopefully I get over it that
day when we move in together.

Just go with it and appreciate the love.

Scott, have you thought about cutting back to, say, three cookies a week?

Oh thank you everyone so much. Maybe I can calm down someday, but still I am nervous that things not work out for us, even if everything
goes well in our relationship and we are doing things together everyday.
You're in that "honeymoon" phase right now where it's natural to want to be together more but even in long-term relationships, there are times when having a little break is a good thing. That saying absence makes the heart grow fonder isn't just a cliché. Or maybe that's just me. :smile:
