Thanks everyone so much!
You know eskielover, I think you're right. I grew up in a very negative household. My boyfriend grew up in a loving and safe household. He has had no major worries about our relationship and seems way more confident about it then I, so I think it's a sign of the issue. I really am not used to being "safe" around other people, but I'll follow your advice and try to adjust to it. I know the relationship is starting to do me good like this.
Thanks, Skeezyks. I've actually found that doing that is helping me, so I've been practicing calmly analyzing a situation where'd I'd be upset before allowing myself to allow strong emotions to take any control. It is taking a while to get the hang of it, since it is hard.
