Someone slap me?!

How have I managed to get sucked into a new relationship so quickly... it's only been 4 weeks and already i'm getting stressed because he hasn't texted me/called when he said he would.

Haven't heard much from him this weekend as he's been busy working on his house so logically I know this is why. He doesn't help things by saying things like I miss you/should be with you/ wish i was with you etc... I guess the cynic in me is telling me he's just saying these things to keep me sweet... after all, why not act on his words? Guess I'm a bit distrustful of men these days...

I hate feeling like this! How can I change and distance myself a bit?!!

Give him the benefit of the doubt for the moment. If it doesn't work out, another one will come along.

I also keep remembering something he said early on about him leading a busy life... something like 'you're gonna think he's never around'! Hmmmm But then he says he feels bad not texting/seeing me enough and wants to see me more. I don't know what to think but I think I sound like a complete fool don't I!

Oh my god chill out, you're totally over thinking this... Keep yourself busy so you don't seem do desperate!

Sssssllllllaaaaapppp! From me, it should be him waiting around for your calls . Make yourself busy and you will have less time to obsess.
Honestly, you should be enjoying yourself in the early days, not fretting.

thank you for the e-slap movingtoourwillow!!!

had a non-eventful day as picked up my eldest from a sleepover and he's absolutely knackered so we're stuck at home!

I don't intend on saying anything to him btw...

exactly buzzardbird. it shouldn't be like this. maybe i'm not quite ready for a new relationship... or maybe it's because he was so full on at the start. literally phoning and texting all the time and telling me how amazing he thinks i am...
