Am I overly affectionate?
I feel like I am super affectionate with my boyfriend, Matthew. I am just SOOO glad to have him in my life, I love him so much, and I'm so proud of him that I can't really keep my hands off him. I'm always hugging him, kissing him on the face or top of the head, and staring at him. The problem is, I've always been afraid that I embarrass him or make him feel awkward when I do that when people are around. It's not like I have my hands all over him in front of our friends and family all the time, I just hug him a lot when were at restaurants and stuff. Then, a few weeks ago, he was almost killed when a huge, rolling truck almost crushed him (no one was hurt just so you know), so I was really hugging and kissing on him a lot in front of some people and running my hand through his hair. Also, a couple days ago, he passed out in front of a crowd at work and was taken to the hospital. He's fine now, but when I saw him afterwards, I did the same thing again, but was a little calmer. He was hugging me back after the truck thing, but not as much at the hospital. I just thought he didn't feel good, but could I embarrass him by doing that stuff.

You are way overthinking this. Unless he explicitly tells you your public displays of affection are out of bounds then I say keep doing what you feel.
Listen kiddo, it's your life. Enjoy it as you see fit. You only get to do it once. You sound pretty damned cool to me.

I suggest you speak to him. It's the only way you will ever know, because each guy is different.
When I was with this one girl, she would do the same. I told her to stop, because I find these types of public displays of affection to be quite vulgar. If someone else was doing the same, I find it to be disgusting, and so I wouldn't want to do it.
So yes, speak to him. If he doesn't mind, then carry on.

I normally do that with my boyfriend. We're really comfortable with each other and we know what we're both cool with.
So when you get the chance, you should just straight up ask him. Ask him if he think you're too affectionate or you embarrass him by doing all that. He'll either say yes or no and then you'll know how you can act from now on.
