For the most part, me neither, and when we got back together things felt very "up in the air" for me, which was scary as all hell!


But I will say this though, going with the flow, at his pace, and just trusting my bf's character and his intentions, was very challenging, yet the most effective "exposure therapy" I could have ever asked for.


It taught me to trust the strength of our relationship, it taught me to stop looking for signs that he was about to jump ship, it taught me to self soothe, and best of all I think, it taught me to stop catastrophesizing.


I have MUCH less relationship anxiety now than I had before these changes took place.


I'm not cured, my mind still likes to run away with me, and I still get insecure, but for the most part I am pretty good at reigning it in.


And when I'm not, or when I'm struggling he's more than willing to help put my mind at ease because he's noticed the change in me.


Ps. Glad I could be of some help Practice really does make perfect. Or perfectish at least.
