I just started dating someone, and we decided we are not going to date others and focus on developing the relationship. It has been a long time since I met someone who I really like (I know it's new, but so far so good).

I struggle with some social anxiety and have some negative beliefs about myself, such as, "I am not very interesting" and want to continue to give as good of an impression as he seems to have so far since he does seem to really like me based on his actions. However, I don't want that to change and for him to get bored of me.

I obsess and over analyze things too, which I want to work on,

Sometimes before I talk to him on the phone, I worry about saying the wrong thing, although it usually goes fine. Does anyone have tips on how to navigate a new relationship when anxiety is a big problem? I'm naturally a very anxious person and a worrier, and I know that probably won't change. But I don't want it to hinder my relationship and could benefit from some tips or support.
