So I recently got out of a long-term relationship (so I get that I've been lonely and feeling down) and I've been talking with this guy via Tinder and I feel like I am already hardcore idealizing him. Like I feel like I'm floating on cloud 9. We've been texting for hours and I'm just like completely smitten and am imagining our future. I know logically that this isn't an appropriate reaction. He honestly sounds like a really cool dude, but I also know that I am definitely putting him on a pedestal. As fun as this feeling is currently, I know that this will burn me soon enough and I'll be sad when something small ruins it for me.

Does anyone have tips on how to cool down my intensity? I feel like I immediately become smitten. I don't know how to like guys without going into the deep end of the pool.
