Beginning of relationships always feels like this. iin?

70% Normal
3 Comments

Every time I start a new relationship with someone, I always feel so awful. I'm always worried that I have hurt their feelings, or that I'm bothering them, or being too annoying. It drives me crazy, and usually into a gut-wrenching depression.

I understand that the more I obsess about it, the more annoying it gets, but I really can't help it. I'm always just so nervous about everything I do. And life basically sucks for a while.

Everything is fine afterwards (after a month or so,) but I was just wondering if anyone gets this shitty feeling for the first few weeks of a relationship. So, is it normal?

    Sure, its normal! Its the beginning of the relationship, and you want to make sure you're doing things right. You want to be on your best behavior so things go smoothly and the relationship actually lasts.

    Just don't become too obsessive over it, or else you could risk pushing your partner away.

    Sometimes worrying about it can only make it worse. If you have good intentions, and love them enough, you shouldn't feel as though you need to try.

      Well thank you very much for your input. :)
      And I'll try not to become too obsessive.
      Which might be tricky for me, because I have pretty bad OCD :s
      But, I'll still do my best!
