so i recently started talking seeing this girl. i really like her and i have the feeling she feels the same. next week it will be three weeks since we met/started hanging out however i know its been less then a month which is a pretty short time frame but next week we have plans to goto the the pro soccer game and it will already be our 4th time hanging out exclusively where its just me and her. two of the four times we have had plans she has been the one to bring up hanging out with one another (keeps beating me to it) the touch barrier has been broken and we still see each other. after we go out for the game next week since we have hung out so much in a short period of time and the touch barrier has been broken, for example when we were at the bar the other night when i put my arm around her she grabbed my hand and held it for a good bit of time do you think due to stuff like that, her bringing up seeing each other again and how much we have already hung out its safe to say theres i...

Currently in high school, made a new couple friends, including this great guy. We started to get to know each other a couple months back. Before school we’d talk, we had one class where we would talk a bunch when there was freetime , at break we’d be near each other, in another class we also spent time together, and after school we’d walk together. Eventually, I caught feelings for this guy after spending so much time with each other, he truly was the perfect guy for me. When I found out through a friend of mine he liked me a lot (he didn’t know I liked him though) too, (showed me text proofs of him gushing over me) I was so happy. This would have been my first relationship, and his too, as told by my friend. I never felt feelings like that for anyone, he genuinely made me so happy. So at that point, we weren’t dating, it sorta became a talking stage except he didn’t know my feelings. But after this week, things started going downhill. Our classes started to get serious, meaning there...

This is a rambling mess. Excuse how shuffled it is. This was an on and off again ex. It was never too nasty or anything just, not the right timing type deal. We didn't speak for 4 years and one day she hits me up. Immediately we're into it, feels awesome, just super lovey dovey, fucking a lot, she'd send sweet messages in the morning, pictures because I liked seeing her, typical stuff. Two months in, completely dies down. Like I mean a 180. We'd still have sex, but it felt more muted and obligatory. She told me I was being too affectionate, and that she's just not that affectionate. It became difficult to talk to her. She'd act snide or irritated, like the relationship became a nuisance. I spoke to her about it and she said she didn't want to make me the focal point of her life. I was like sure that's okay, I just enjoy time with you and expressing my feelings. In response she told me that I was right and that she shouldn't have been so extreme. N...
