I am so bad at this.

I’ve been seeing this guy for a little over a month and last night I was a little drunk and think I freaked him out. I told him I was really in love with him (he has said that he thinks he’s falling in love with me, but I took it one step further). Also, he kept asking me throughout the night if something was bothering me (i think I was being a little standoffish towards him) and he said he thought that it seemed like I thought I liked him more than he liked me and that he felt bad and didn’t understand why I felt that way. I told him I’d been hurt before in a similar relationship and I was worried about getting hurt. I feel like I opened up to him too much and seemed way too serious about us to him. I don’t know what to do now. I think I’m just going to lay low for a bit and give him some space.

Maybe you can tell him that you were not yourself, and explain that whilst what you said was true, it is not something to ponder over and worry about. He’s probably feeling a bit insecure and thrown off but likes you a lot, and feels that you are worth the effort :)

hopefully. but who knows! i texted him earlier and then got a missed call from him, but when i called him back he didn’t answer. so i guess i’ll just let it be for now, but i can’t help but feel a little uncomfortable and nervous
