Okay so I went on a date yesterday and I had been talking to this guy for about a month before meeting. About a week or so ago I acknowledged my usual obsessive behaviours (checking texts, sending extra messages, being sad when he’s gone etc) and that only lasted a few days. 

It feels like the date went really well? Like I got comfortable with him really quickly, we went for a long walk and then I went to his and we just listened to music together, and talkedddd and cuddled. And we did kiss. 

But I’m confused and hoping for reassurance. I’ve never dated anyone I haven’t been obsessed with?? Everyone I’ve dated has been an fp and I’ve felt like I can’t function without them. And so this is leading me to be confused about whether I truly like this guy or not… I was extremely anxious about meeting him to the point I was put on meds temporarily, but once I met him it was all chill. I didn’t really get butterflies, but I did feel warm and comfortable with him. 

I guess this sounds really pathetic and weird in my head. And probably a really stupid question. But I just don’t know how to tell if I like someone romantically unless I’m obsessing over them and infatuated. Has anyone here dated someone who wasn’t an fp? This confusion is stressing me out, wish I could just have ‘normal’ relationships… 🤦🏻‍♀️
