Theres this guy, who i like alot, he makes me smile
Just... well.. I haven't exactly had the best past in relationships (guys cheating on me etc etc)

& in my head i keep thinking about these awful things, i mean i trust him, but i can't stop thinking "what if?"

As in what if he secretly doesn't wanna be with me etc

Am i crazy?




*sigh*

No your not crazy when we have being hurt in the past so much its kind of like a defense mechanism we build in to ourselves, as if to say well i have being hurt before whats stopping someone else doing it to me.

Just build the relationship up slowly and don't get involved to fast

No you're not crazy, just normal. You need to learn to trust again, that's all.

Can't say much more than these people already have..all good advice
Just relax, and give him an "individual" chance..don't have the relationship over, before it's even began.

Just relax there are a million 'what if' questions that you can ask yourself but so long as he's well meaning that is all that really matters

Talk with your boyfriend about your feelings, it'll make you closer. Otherwise, you may be acting kind of weird, and he won't know why. But if you have a conversation with him about it, he'll understand you better so you'll be closer, and that'll prevent your completely normal fears from interfering in this relationship.

However, don't discount your feeling entirely. It is possible that you are picking things up from him that are triggering your fears, and that may be legitimate.

I agree with "lili" !! Have a talk with him and let him know you have a tendancy to do this! I have been hurt by a lot of guys and have fought a low self esteem problem for most of my life because of it! Once I get to know someone, I tell them I have a tendancy to be suspicious and can sabotage a relationship! Most men who really care, will understand and be glad you told them. Some will even warn you if they see you unconciously sabotaging the relationship! It is an important part of the relationship to be honest! If you have a relationship worth keeping, this needs to be addressed!! My current guy and I both admit to having a jealous nature. We both accept this and when one is jealous, the other just reinforces the love. So far this has worked for us.
