thatsraaad Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 I started dating someone about two months ago and things have been going great. Even though he's really different from me, we get along amazingly. I was unsure and nervous about the relationship at first due to various complications, but most of those things resolved themselves. Everything developed naturally and it all seemed really genuine because I liked him for who he was and not because he fit a type. I was really happy with everything until a few days ago, when completely out of the blue, I had almost like an anxiety attack and started questioning my feelings for him. I started feeling discontent and I thought it would go away with the anxiety but it didn't. Now it seems like I don't even really feel anything romantic for him, and little things about him that used to be endearing are kind of off-putting, and it's getting worse, I hardly want to think about him anymore. Now I look at him and I don't even find him physically attractive - which is crazy, because I was still extremely physically attracted to him not even a week ago. I have no idea what's happening. Nothing triggered this. I really want to feel normal again but I can't. What in the world is going on? I keep hoping this will pass. Right now I'm trying to have my space to sort this out... and I think he caught on to that because he's given it to me without asking - which is another great thing about him, and it makes me so mad at myself that I feel this way. It's just so weird, because a mere number of days ago I felt like a swooning schoolgirl thinking about him and how in love I was (it's probably too early to actually say "love", but it's what I felt). Maybe all of my insecurities about this came together at once and made me freak out? But I don't know why that affected my attraction for him. What do you think is going on, and do you think I can get past this?

Attack is kind of a strong word, it's more just a consistent paranoia/stream of anxious thoughts that I get occasionally from it but it always goes away in a few hours. Never anything lasting. But still, I rarely ever do it for that reason. I haven't been anxious at all since then, except concerning him.
