Red face I don't get it

Okay, officially since last night, with me totally having the confirmation fly over my head during our talk until today, my boyfriend and I are back together.

BUT...(yes there is a but)....

He said We are Together, We are in a Relationship, I am his Girl, and He is my Guy, I can say he's my Boyfriend he doesn't care, But....We are not going to use labels.

So he said he'd present me as his Girl to everybody, saying yea...That's my Girlfriend....

He said he wants to take things slow and see how things go between us before we are "Boyfriend and Girlfriend" again. (Using the names.)

He admitted he's really scared of commitment, which I told him "This is a commited Relationship we are in." He's afraid of using names, because he said that's the next step to Engagement. (Totally freaked out of getting married).

I'm shocked that he's giving us another go.
I should let him do his thing and ease into whatever fears he has to over come in a month or so. But it just confused me what he said today. lol

Yeah, us men types are confusing beasts. Bear with him. There are few words that inspire the fear we go through every time we hear the word ... -dramatic music in background- ... marriage. I personally didn't get over my fear of it till just a couple years ago.

Long as you and he are on the same level about being monogomous and staying with each other, don't stress it. He's moving the right direction and obviously cares about ya. He'll keep making progress with time.

Just keep him away from that scare family of yers :P

I will make sure of it!

Yea, we are on the same page though. He said he doesn't want to see anybody else but me, and I shouldn't see any other guy but him. We are dating only each other he says.

It's just funny to me that he complicates things, and he's scared of what we were before, Boyfriend and Girlfriend.

But true, I should be grateful he even reconsidered our Relationship and wants to be with me again

I really am a lucky girl, that I'm getting another chance with a great guy.
