She tells me and almost everyone she knows that she wants to be with me, but when I reciprocated it freaked her out
So yea - like the title says. I met someone wonderful. Good communication and honesty between us and she confessed first
I even told her I was gonna talk abt something serious when I confessed and she got nervous when I did. We agreed we'd navigate this carefully before we'd be sure about being together.
She was honest about wanting to be with me - even saying it'd be nice to spend her life with me. I'm the type to date for the long-term so when she wasn't ready, I told her I'd be patient and understanding.
I talked about it more and noticed that I was adjusting to a lot of the things I was concerned about, like some of her impulsive or hurtful actions towards me - which I understood - 'cause people aren't perfect and we're both dealing with our own problems anyway. I even asked her to tell me if I was doing something she didn't like and I'd adjust - I even feel guilty for saying this - but she wasn't expressing the same sentiment for me. And then at the end of the conversation it's like she's not sure about being with me - like the communication, honesty, and feelings we had got scrambled
And as the person who reciprocated, talked about things, adjusted, and told her that I was looking to moving forward with our mutual feelings but I would be patient - it just really confused me like she suddenly put a wall up out of nowhere.
I really feel like I did something wrong and I asked but she just says I'm not doing anything wrong and it hurts 'cause I don't know why it's like her feelings changed when I confessed and I wish she'd be more considerate of me, too
