I’ve mentioned before that I’ve never really been in a serious relationship. The longest relationship I’ve ever been in has been about two months. Mr. Incredible and I are approaching our 4 month mark. I’m not gonna lie…it freaks me out. I’m a happy and positive person but for some reason I have this fear that I’m going to mess something up.
I try my best to be the best girlfriend I can be so I know there’s nothing more I could do to try and make him happy but I can’t help to have a lingering thought that I may or may not mess it up. I think that may be my OCD talking. I like to have things planned out but I can’t do that in my relationship (at least not at this point).
I don’t know at what point I’ll stop thinking that way but I hope it’s soon.
I guess that’s it for now.

I so totally get what you are saying, I too have been there. Consider focusing on the good parts instead of what “couda, should, woulda” happen, or when will the ax fall. If you redirect your enegies you might be less likely to inadvertently create the chaos that has consumed your life (trust me when I say I know exactly where you are, I too have a history of destroying good things in my life). keep up the good work!!!
Congrats on almost 4 months!! And as long as you’re having fun, being honest, and happy, I don’t think you have to worry about messing things up between you two.
I agree with Audrey. Try not to fret about stuff. So long as you get along, make each laugh, support each other and generally don’t like being apart then there’s nothing to worry about.
You will argue no doubt. Assuming you haven’t already, when you do, do not see it as the end of the world.
Enjoy the ride!
Yay so happy for you! Just don’t over-think it. I know that is easier said than done!
yes it’s most definitely easier said than done…but i’m trying! Thanks for the kind words 🙂
Trust me, don’t worry..just enjoy it and take it for what it is, a wonderful period in your life that you hope lasts. When you put pressure on yourself is when relationships start to go wrong due to worrying about things that haven’t happened yet..just relax and go with the flow. You both like each other, why worry about anything else?..you were doing something right to get them in the first place and just because it’s your first long term relationship do not think this means that your not doing it better than 95% of people out there.. 🙂
