Good morning šŸ™‚ Does anyone else suffer with relationship anxiety? Iā€™m scared Iā€™m ruining everything and Iā€™m going to lose him because I always think heā€™s going to cheat when heā€™s out with his friends. I Donā€™t want to lose him, our relationship is otherwise amazing and heā€™s the most loving, caring person Iā€™ve met. Just need someone to talk to whoā€™s been in or is in a similar situation because Iā€™m too embarrassed to talk to friends about it

Thank you for replying šŸ™‚ Yeah he is good looking and heā€™s so confident and knows he looks good too. I do know he loves me and I keep telling myself that and weā€™ve been living together a while now he always comes home to me. Thereā€™s no other issues in our relationship at all. I think itā€™s me and my self confidence because I donā€™t look the way I did when we first met. Iā€™ve put a bit weight on and I feel bad about myself. Seems crazy when Iā€™m putting it in writing because I know he wouldnā€™t do that to us and like I say I know how much he loves me

Relationship anxiety is very real. Iā€™ve struggled with this as well. Iā€™ve gotten so anxious that Iā€™ve almost pushed my husband away. One thing I had to stop and consider was how much I was truly worried about his choices and his much was it that I was lacking in my own self worth. It sounds like you have yourself a great guy, but you sound like you are pretty great as well. Have you shared your anxiety with him? Allow yourself to be open and he might find ways to increase your security as well.

Im in the exact same boat as you, not so much with being scared he will cheat anymore though. If he does then he does, i cannot stop him but i can kick him out of my life if he decides to do something like that. Think to yourself "do i want this person to be the father of my children?" that is what helps me. worrying isnt going to stop anything

Your story is so relatable. I have been into worse relationships and now that I am in a healthy relationship, I am scared that I might screw things up someday and this would come to an end due to my anxiety. Me and my boyfriend has been living together for the past 3 months, and things have been nice. But I am a person who over-thinks a lot and I think that can get really bad once we get away from each other. In the next two months, he will be leaving for Canada and my anxiety is working really bad. I don't know, all that I can think of is all of that can go wrong in this relationship. I am a clingy person, I am dependent on people. I don't want to be but I lose hold of it and get too clingy with the people I love. He's the best that I have had till date, he understands me, he loves me, but I am always worried that, due to my insecurities and everything one day he might want this to stop.

I know all that we need to do is open up about things to them, but something just keeps me away from doing so. It could be my past experiences that is not letting me do so, even though I trust him and love him from the core of my heart.
