Cool website here. I have been reading for awhile but feel like I need to post now.
My problem is that I feel on top of the world when I am dating someone. I feel more confident and generally much more happy and fullfilled. But the opposite when I am not.
There is this new girl that I have gone on a few dates with. I feel like I really like her and could be exclusive with her and it has only been 4 dates. I think this is my problem. I am really picky with girls, but when I find one I like, I really latch onto them emotionally (but of course I suppress my feelings so they don't know this and I don't scare them away).
Is this wrong and bad?
I mean I feel so great when we hang out. But when I don't hear from her for two days I feel anxious, and even a little sad and lonely. And I wonder why she hasn't called and what she is doing. I drive myself nuts with this stuff.
I have a lot of free time in my life right now (I am a student) so I don't know if that is making this worse or not.
Any thoughts or words of wisdom from the experts here? How do I get past this?
Thank you.
