I started dating someone some days ago
We’re fine. He likes me, I like him. Everything’s fucking fine
And yet I’m nervous
I feel like something’s gonna go terribly wrong
I feel like we should just break up because it won’t last anyway
But if we break up, I’ll feel even worse
It’s been a year since the last time I felt something for someone, and I’m even wondering if I actually really do
I’m not in that “in love” phase he’s in. I’m his first pair, he’s my second one (plus, I’m aromantic. I don’t process stuff normally)
I suppose it’s normal I handle things differently
I tried telling this in a very light way to my mother (she doesn’t know I’m aro) and she just shut me up and told me “that’s bad. Don’t say that”
And I’m scared. I’m afraid I’m convincing myself I like him but I really don’t, I’m afraid he does something and hurts me and then I react and hurt him worse
But uh, I’m on my period. I’m just being dramatic here
Hopefully I’ll be better as soon as I see him again and reaffirm everything’s just fine
