So I have a girlfriend who I love very much 

It's terrifying

Everytime she says something in order to get my attention (ex. "Hey", "[Name]?", etc) I get so scared. Thoughts rush that what if she's about to break up with me? Or tell me she doesn't like me or something

And it's eating me up. She leaves me on read sometimes, but she always has. She does that to everyone whether it's because she's busy or something else. I know this isn't necessarily a bad thing but it makes me over think and stuff


Now here's where I'm conflicted. Do I talk to her and tell her that I might need some kind of reassurance? I don't wanna come off as too clingy

My terrible ex said to me something along the lines of "you constantly bothered me with your undiagnosed anxiety. Always worrying me and needing reassurance"

First of all I find it hilarious that he used "undiagnosed"  As an insult, especially when I'm diagnosed and on meds for it

Second, I don't want the same thing to happen with my gf. I don't want to bother her or be too much of a burden on her. But I'm scared what might happen if I keep these feelings inside


Should I just be able to deal with this or would it be ok to need a bit of reassurance here and there from her? Or does that come off as she would think she's not doing good enough? 

Please help if you can, thanks
