Things going well with new gf, but have a small concern or 2, about FBook etc

[AloneinTexas]

So I have been talking to and dating a girl now for 6 weeks. We have been talking that long but have only been on 2 dates, and have spent a total of 48 hours together. We both agreed we weren't looking at anyone else to date, which was my idea that she agreed with--about 2 weeks ago. Just yesterday we had "the talk" and both are official bf/gf. Now I know this may seem moving too quick on paper because of the relatively low amount of 1 on 1 hours together---but it feels right for us both.

 

Questions/concerns

 

1. Ever since our "talk" yesterday, she has been very quick to wanting to change her relationship status on FBook. She has already asked me to accept her as gf etc etc. I have told her I wasn't on my computer last night to do it, but I would get around to it today. There's a small part of me that thinks she is just doing this partly so everyone can "see" that she has a bf now. You know what I mean? Like to show me off, but not in a good way, as if to make ME feel good, but rather...herself. Am I being overly analytical or just stupid?

 

Also, although we both know we only want each other and no one else, right now it still feels slightly off/wierd to be calling her my gf. We have done lots of physical things already and have had lots of fun...but something just feels slightly off. Maybe Im trying to self-sabatoge this, who knows...

 

Anyone care to indulge?

 

I can answer anything else too if it will help shed light. Or just tell me to stop thinking so much. haha

 

Merry christmas

Yeah, and? If she hadn't done that you'd be starting a thread because she hasn't changed it....I don't understand why this is an issue for you. It's very, very normal, since you asked her to be your girlfriend. If you have a problem with this, are you sure you're ready for this relationship to go to the next level?

Again: yeah, so? I can't even comprehend why changing her FB status to "in a relationship with aloneintexas" would cause you to think anything other than she is now "in a relationship with sadintexas" and she's not trying to hide it. Usually that's a good thing.

 

Also can't comprehend why you would ever think someone's FB status should be about making you feel good.

I think you're not ready for this, or not sure about it, and you're looking for problems where there are none.

I am a handful. I know.

 

I tend to make problems out of nowhere. But I think I may have these feelings cuz I dont know her THAT well yet, but it may be a case where in a week or 2 I will be more comfortable with all this.

Dude! If you don't know her that well and don't feel comfortable, why'd you ask her to be your gf??!!

slight confusion....

 

2 weeks ago i told her im only interested in getting to know her.

 

yesterday she told me she wants to be my gf.

 

essentially the same thing i guess...or is it??

I think we actually are on the same page. There hasnt been any game playing, and she says im the "awesomest person shes ever met."

 

I think im just an idiot to be honest. My feelings arent even logical. I think its just that she has been quite shy around me and Im used to a more aggressive girl. I think she will open up though. Like even little things like a quick kiss in public throws her off (she's only had 1 bf and that was a long time ago---she's had 7 years of booty calls though and now knows thats NOT what she wants.) I think she is just not used to what being a gf entails maybe. Ill give it time before i jump to conclusions haha
