mugirl213 Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 How do I hold back. I'm 26, living with my 25 year old boyfriend of 8 months. We're entirely happy but I don't want to rush things. Obviously we've rushed things a bit by living together so early in the relationship, but there were extenuating circumstances for that and we've taken "precautions" like having a 2 bedroom apartment. Stuff of that nature. But the thing is...I feel for him like I've never felt for anyone else before...I just feel myself so caught up in that that I feel at times I'm ready to get married tomorrow (figuratively) and it's partly b/c we live together, which has strengthened our bond further. I just need advice on how NOT to get ahead of myself. It's very hard.
bluechocolate Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 Get ahead of yourself how? You're living together. If the two of you didn't think that you'd have a long term thing happening then surely you wouldn't be living together? (granted I don't know the circumstances of why you moved in) I don't see how you can "slow it down" when you're co-habitating but maybe you could try just taking it one day at a time. When your mind starts dreaming up bells & babies just repeat to yourself "one day at a time".
