relationship help: I just started dating (first boyfriend) and we started pulling - Help.com



This post left anonymously

I just started dating (first boyfriend) and we started pulling in the cinema…

i didnt like it much and felt rather chlastrophobic….im scared about doing it again and am beginning to wonder whether this relationship is going to fast…..i like all the other parts of our relationship like talking, hugging, holding hands, kiss on the cheek and a kiss on the mouth but just not pulling! do you think i should be honest with him and just tell him how i feel?

If you talk about this and this person appreciates you, they may be dismayed and show disappointment (it’s only natural) but s/he will be glad that you trusted him/her enough to talk about it instead of continuing to do it and risking a break in the relationship. It is likely that this person will be even more excited when you are finally ready and you choose to initiate the moment.

Pulling is when you are pulling your hair out because you don’t know what the heck to do about your relationship!

Snogging is kissing…. Tonsil hockey y’know?!

the guy isn’t being told what to do or when to stop… he’s not doing it on purpose.. guys would keep going until told to stop or until they get that little hint to stop… it’s purely down to the fact that he wants you to enjoy being with him or have a good time with him…(this sounds very sinister… em… I don’t mean it to!) It’s nothing to worry about, just let him know next time or if you wanna tell him about the cinema, tell him.. i don’t see any problems happening…

Tonsil hockey, French kissing… Same thing! lol! different countries call it different things! it’s funny! in Dublin (Ireland) it’s ‘meeting’ and in Carlow (Ireland) it’s ’shifting’…. it’s really confusing… as if your talking about a item of furniture… (i made that mistake..) (with a girl…. not the furniture…! honest!)

Call him to meet up again… mention it if it gets close to happening again.. or call and tell him.. (would you find it kinda embarrassing to bring it up on the phone though??)

Tell him then… if you call him now he’ll know you were thinking about it ALOT and he might start to worry… is it his first relationship too?
