Weird point in relationship

Anyone at that weird stage, 10 months in, too soon for really commitment, but maybe too short to really survive potentially 3+ months of no contact.

It all feels a bit strange, I'm not sure what I should expect really. But I think I'm finding the extra weirdness and pressure a bit much.

It was a pretty good relationship before this, so I can't decide if it's just the stress/anxiety altering expectations.

Anyone else on that cusp of a relationship being serious and not sure they want this virus to force it either way?

I’m 9 months in too.

We’d only just agreed to be exclusive/come off the apps a month ago.

He’s been pushing to see each other and I’ve said no. He’s also suffering with depression/been ill with the virus (not hideously poorly)which makes him withdraw and contact just goes (he has form for this) - cue me getting anxious and annoyed.

I’ve also checked out the dating app we used - he’s still on it. Even if he’s not swiping/messaging, he hasn’t deleted his profile like we agreed.

So I’ve finished things. This morning. We may be in exceptional circumstances that are unsettling us/changing some behaviours - but mine has overstepped some boundaries and I am not tolerating that.
