Hi,

New to this: Just looking for help understanding something. I split up with my partner after 8 years, i'm 32 and we had two children. It was tough as you might expect. That ended for good just over 3 months ago. Two weeks ago i went on a date with a girl, we liked eachother and have met every other day since. But recently i'm finding when i come home i can't get her out of my mind. I'm totally consumed, i can't sleep, i can't converse with people, i just want her to be there. When i'm with her it's all good. But as soon as i'm home it slowly builds up into me missing her really badly. I just want to know why i can't fight what seems to be an obsession off. Is this normal? I don't want to bombard her with phonecalls or texts in case it gets creepy or too full on. In past relationships i can't recall ever feeling this way. Any advice would be appreciated, particularly if there is some that might help me block it out, and let me function when i'm not with her.

Thanks, Craig.
