Hi everyone! I’m (F26) in a new relationship with a man (M31) I’m really attracted to, both physically and emotionally. The problem is, I’ve never felt this intense of an attraction to someone before like ever. I am constantly thinking about him, and it’s not just sexual attraction, I feel like I’m obsessed with him in every way.
I’ve never been a jealous or possessive person in past relationships, but with him, I feel anxious when he’s around other people or doing things without me. I’m scared this feeling might be unhealthy, and I’m not sure if it’s normal to feel this strongly, this early in a relationship.
TL;DR Has anyone else experienced this kind of intense attraction? Is it normal, or should I be concerned? I’m also worried because I’ve never been this emotionally invested before, and the thought of getting hurt is kind of terrifying. I tend to notice that I get cold towards him when he shows love and I think it’s because I’m shielding myself from getting hurt and getting too invested in a person. I just don’t do well with heartache. Any advice or insights would be really appreciated!
