i'm with a guy i like a lot.
and he's liked me for.. ages.
he asked me out a couple times and i said no.
last night i swallowed my fears of getting hurt again and asked him...
he was over the moon. as was i
havent stopped smiling since... literally.
and got the most darling text when i woke up, from him..
but im worried already. he hasnt replied to mine, and its been five minutes and im fretting. thinking that hes changed his mind, that he just doesnt like me like that anymore. that hes realised just how fat and ugly and stupid and annoying i am all of a sudden.
arrgghhh i hate being so paranoid. worst. girlfriend. ever.
i know he wouldnt intentionally hurt me.
im just worried hes changed his mind and cant tell me.
im addicted to the feeling of being loved. wanted. being happy...
still counting.. its seven minutes now..
arrgh.

7 minutes...take a step back and think what you can do that takes 7 minutes. Maybe he's showering and brushing his teeth, maybe he's using the facilities and getting dressed, or eating, or talking on the phone, or thinking what to say that will make you smile that pretty smile again. For some of us, it is natural to think the worst...to think just like you are right now. Instead of that, try to think maybe it's not you...maybe it has nothing at all to do with you. Maybe he got a phone call. Maybe he's scared just like you were. Maybe it's a hundred other things besides you...so think that, it's much easier and kinder to you. Don't assume the worst.

well he called me half an hour later to say hi =] and i just blurted all of my paranoia and jealousy out. and he's.. actually really understanding =] he said he felt the same way sometimes. and i actually believe that he's... amazing. and that hes not gonna treat me like dirt =]
im just so happy.. and i never knew i could be. maybe im stupid and shouldnt read so much into it.
the last time i felt this happy i... cant really remember.
thanks for your help, cant.. im sure im gonna be able to use it a lot, knowing me =]
