Q: Hey everyone. I'm a 17y/o f btw,
So I've been with someone for a little less than two months. He's an amazing guy who speaks both my languages, he loves to read (almost as much as I do), he likes the same type of music, he's just great. He's a perfect gentleman and he agreed to meet my family the second week we were dating.
He's a year older. He's in college and he's working at his college. Still, he takes time off on fridays and has lunch with me. We live about five minutes away from each other, so he can also visit after school.
The problem is that I'm a very independent, cranky girl. I used to get home and go to sleep until the next day. And now I text him when I get home and if I'm going to sleep. I talk to him on the phone pretty much all the time, and we text constantly. He's also the type of guy that if you're mad, he wants to talk it out. I'm not used to talking about my problems or why I'm cranky so I usually end up telling him to mind his own business.
So this has created a lot of stupid arguments. I felt like maybe he was invading my space? So I got defensive over everything and I'd end up hanging up, turning my phone off and going to sleep pissed.
Then I'd wake up and realize that I was being stupid and call him and apologize. And in about three days, it'd happen again.
Honestly, he's everything I wanted in a guy, but sometimes I just feel numb. Sometimes I just want to cut it off before it becomes something serious. I feel like it'd be easier to just break up with him and keep being as I was than to work through whatever issues we may have. Maybe I need more time to get used to it or maybe I'm just being selfish?
