I am a very quiet person. The same goes for my girlfriend too, but not as much as me. She seems quieter around me though. But I don't feel quite right. We have been boyfriend and girlfriend for like 2 days. I have known her 5 years though. Yesterday we went to Mountasia together along with her sister, and her friend and her friends boyfriend. I am mostly quiet in groups, If I were alone with her, I could talk quite a bit, but whenever I am in groups of people, I am really quiet. But I was quiet last night, and had a feeling of that she wasn't having much fun, even though she said she was having fun. I know it has only been like 2 days, but I feel like I am not doing enough for her, or with her. Like when we are walking next to each other, I don't hold her hand (yet) or anything like that. We hug, but nothing much different then when we were just friends, except hanging out more. After Mountasia, we went to her friends boyfriends house for hot chocolate, but me and my girlfriend didn't have any. We sat next to each other on the couch. But here is where I really felt like I wasn't doing anything. Her friend and her friends boyfriend were trying to get me to put my arm around her and all that stuff. For one thing, I don't want to do that just because they want me to. Also my girlfriend was just like, "guys, just shut up" and she kind of laughed. but I just don't feel like I am doing enough. Maybe once I get to spend more time with her, just me and her, since we haven't done that really since we have became boyfriend and girlfriend. I will see her today, and I really want to say something to her like how I am quiet when we are in groups of people, but I talk more when I am alone with 1 person. Something similar to that. And I think I should also add that I have never been in a relationship, so sorry If I don't do everything exactly right, but I will try, and then add on that I really like her a lot, and that she doesn't even know how happy she has made me.

So what do you guys think? Am I not doing enough. Again, it has only been 2 days.

She wasn't at youth group tonight since she had to help her mom, but I think it will be better to talk with her tomorrow, I asked her if she wanted to hang out tomorrow, and she said she would like to if she doesn't have much homework. But tomorrow is better since we would both be alone, without 10 other people listening to us two talking.
