View Full Version : Why do I worry so much?

To make a long story short, I met this guy on a dating site. I actually know of him because he dated someone that I know a little while back. I just have never actually met him before. He messaged me on there and we started talking. It quickly went to text and we hit it off like crazy. It is so crazy because I never thought I'd like him as much as I do. He is totally not the person I'd feel like this about. So it's a surprise... a great one, actually!

The problem is, we keep making plans to meet up, but he reschedules them all the time. We have yet to meet up and he has rescheduled 4 times. He always makes it a point to set another date, but it never works out. He even has said that he is excited about it. So it seems like he is interested. Things just keep coming up, I guess.

I don't know. I just keep worrying for some reason. He is little older than I am. He has a legit job and works a lot. That doesn't bother me at all, obviously. I just don't know when to text him because I never know when he gets off work... and I don't want to come off clingy or annoying.

We hit it off and he tells he thinks I'm cute, he really likes me, he wants to meet up, he is excited about it, etc. But I still worry like crazy. I think I worry because I just like him THATTTT much. We have been talking for only a short time, but I have developed some feelings. I just worry and overthink things. It drives me crazy.

I don't really know what to do about it and I don't know why I do it.

Been there, done that. How far away does he live? As in would a meet-up be easy for both of you or are we talking a multiple-hour drive?

It is maybe a 30-35 minute drive at the most. It isn't too bad.

It's weird because I feel like he is interested, but at the same time, I don't. I just don't know why he would make it a point to continually set up new dates and tell me he is excited if he isn't interested, you know? So it sort of makes me think I am just overthinking it. Like I am creating problems where there aren't any.

Just curious, have you talked to him via webcam and Skype call? Or just through IM and text?

I've talked to him over text and on the phone, but not webcam or Skype.

Ah okay. If I were you, I'd be a bit cautious, just in-case he isn't what he claims to be.

Oh no, I'm 100% positive it is actually him. haha I knew of the guy before I started talking to him. He dated a guy that I went to high school with. And we are friends on Facebook, he has sent me a few pictures, etc. I know those aren't guarantees that it is actually him, but I'm positive it is. lol

How old is he and how old are you?

How old is he and how old are you?

I am 20 and he is 30. Yes, I know, it is a big age difference. However, we have talked about it and we are more than comfortable with it.
