Dating 2 months but it's starting to feel like a LTR. She's scared. What can I do???

[dextm]

I've been seeing this girl for almost 2 months now and everything's great. We enjoy the companionship, friendship, romance, and intimacy. We said we'd take things slow and casually date (exclusive) for AT LEAST 6 months but we both feel like we're already in a relationship or at least heading in that direction.

 

It's all the little things we do - meeting up at least twice a week, prioritizing ourselves, missing each other, conversing on the phone almost everyday, feeling comfortable/safe, talking about important things, compromising and finding ways to satisfy each other, etc. Heck, last night we had a little debate over the phone on showing PDA in front of family/friends (I am for, she is against) and after 2 hours of "arguing" she pulled a 180 and sided with me. All I did was tell her I would like to see more of an effort on her side as opposed to a straight "No, I'm not doing it because I don't like it" and she surprisingly agreed to it. That's when I told her something along the lines of "I appreciate your willingness to step outside of your comfort zone to please me but please don't feel forced to do anything because technically we're not in a relationship, although it feels like one with every passing day". No one does this kinda stuff (the little things, the compromising) if they're just casually dating, right?

 

Everything evolved naturally, albeit at an astronomical rate, and we're both the "go with the flow" type, but I can sense that it's freaking her out and she's scared. I like this girl a lot and I would enter a LTR with her right now, but I don't want her to feel pressured to do it.

 

What can I do to help her? (time and space to think is key I know)

bump, any comments?

I don't understand the problem...at all

 

or wait, maybe it's the mechanical thinking involved in dating in the 21st century?

 

newsflash: you obviously HAVE a relationship. Did you plan to check your calendar after 6 months, meet and say to each other: "hey, from this second on we are in a LTR!"?

Me neither. Women always make a big deal out of nothing.
