I just got out of a two year relationship a few months ago and I started talking to this new guy about a month ago and I really like him, I’m pretty much over my ex now so he isn’t a problem. This new guy he’s so unbelievably nice to me and is even planning on taking me to “my own personal prom” since he can’t make it to mine. But for some reason I’ve been so sad, not because of him. I think it’s because I’m used to a long relationship that I was sure of with someone I knew well. This is all so new to me, I like this guy so much and I’m so scared what we have won’t last and I’ll end up getting hurt again. And this pit in my chest that I have half the time isn’t helping me. I hate being so uncertain and having to warm up to someone again. Do you guys have any advice on how to make myself feel better in this situation? I really believe this guy likes me but I can’t stop myself from feeling like this.

I also think I’m a little obsessive and I hate that because I’m sad when I’m not talking to him. I don’t want to be like that. Do you guys have any tips on how to not focus every aspect of your life on a single person? I hate that I’m like this and I just want to feel fine without having someone else.
