Zebarbu Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I don’t mean physically. I mean she told me “I’m scared of you because I like you so much” Kind of confused I asked her what she meant and she replied “It’s like I meant, I like you too much” So I guess I should just take her word for it and keep going?

NYAG Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Maybe she doesn't trust easily, maybe she's afraid of getting her heart broken. I would have asked for more clarity. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I would have asked for more clarity. Yeah, I probably should have pushed to open up a bit more about it. If she meant what she said, we’re obviously on the same page It did make me feel really good when she said it, because she cuddled up to me too. I think I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing and date her more 2 Link to post Share on other sites
usa1ah Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 There is some bs out there saying not to get to close. Which as I said is bs. If you feel the same way, tell her so. Just mention that it doesn’t scare you because you are with her. Then talk about it more. Link to post Share on other sites

It's just it's only been one month are we're both clearly at the infatuation stage... Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 She's not scared of you as much as she's scared of getting hurt. Be gentle & less intense with her but remaining reassuring & trustworthy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If you analyze and hang on every word like this, you'll take all the fun out of a new romance. Relax and enjoy. People say all sorts of giddy things at this stage that are basically meaningless. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe she's been badly hurt before. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Cookiesandough Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Idk that seems weird... an attempt at flattery or a warning of trust issues perhaps Edited May 22, 2021 by Cookiesandough Link to post Share on other sites

Good on her for saying this. I could never expose my vulnerability like that - I'm too distrusting. Link to post Share on other sites

I could never expose my vulnerability like that - I'm too distrusting. I managed to open her quite a bit last night: I could tell she was down and something was on her mind. I asked her to come to my room. After a bit of chatting, she let me know she had forgotten the anniversary of her dad's death. I asked her questions and stuff and she started to tear up a bit. When we had finished, she told me 'Thank you so much for listening to me' and kissed me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 That was very sweet of you to empathize with her grief. I think if you are patient & don't push in time she will learn that you have earned her trust. Let her get there on her own & her terror will diminish. Link to post Share on other sites

dramafreezone Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 ha, I would've said I don't bite, unless you want me to. I'm not even that type that uses "lines" but that's too good of an opening Link to post Share on other sites
