I've got something a little weird going on with my feelings.
Things with bar guy are going relatively well. However, suddenly I feel nervous around him? I don't know what's happening.
I felt that around date 4-6 with my guy. I think it was me starting to catch feelings & getting anxious about what we were/ where things were at. I prompted a chat about it, and that really helped.
If you feel okay doing so, maybe call it out and chat about it with bar guy?
Self sabotage?
This is totally natural, I'm a guy and had the same feelings after the first few dates with a new GF, I felt that it was going to be something good, but maybe held back a bit to see if my feelings weren't lying to me and that I could get hurt again.
Have been with Mrs_Owl for 23 years since I overcame those doubts and took a chance.
