roxy_1980 Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 I have a constant problem in all of my relationships. I know that I could potentially seem very clingy in the beginning stages of a relationship, so I back away for a bit. But my ex from 3 years ago (we're just friends now) told methat I always seemed kinda distant in our relationship back then. (Before I get a whole bunch of he wants you back junk, he was just trying to help me after I told him about my break up a few weeks back. There is nothing there anymore.) Can anyone tell me when is a good time to start spend more regular time with a new bf and how regular of contact? I feel I need some sort of timeline for relationship if I'm ever gonna fix this tendency. Thanks for any input, Roxy
Guest Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Just wanted to say I hear you on this. I think I make the same mistake. I don't think it's about time; more about attitude and behaviour during the time. I'll be interested in the replies!
Curmudgeon Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 I would think that a "one size fits all," arbitrary timeline would ultimately come across as contrived. Perhaps just letting the boyfriend take the lead (I know. Old-fashioned.) and going with what you're truly comfortable with would be and seem more natural.
