A turn of events

---

Ah yes, very romantic- roses and all. Good luck tonight

Woooo :smile:
It went perfectly :laughing: I'm a happy chappy!

I wanna hear the story!!!Sappy love tale!!!sits indian style resting his chin in his hands

i was just getting around to telling It was wonderful. I saw her arrive, and knew that this was it As she walked up, I unveiled the rose, at which point she grabbed it and leapt on me, giving me the best hug I've ever had before! We stayed embraced for a while, before looking directly into each other's eyes and then giving each other a sweet kiss. Not a single word was said. Nothing needed to be said. We both knew exactly how we felt each other, just by being in each other's arms. It was incredible.We then held hands and walked to the most convenient seating area, where we gazed into each other's eyes for a bit longer, before finally telling each other how we felt.As expected, she wept softly whilst exchanging kisses and cuddles. The rest of the evening was just spent with us walking, kissing and cuddling. We didn't speak much, because we didn't need to. I also found out she likes being kissed behind the ears and on the neck Unfortunately it had to end a bit early because she's going on a trip tomorrow and has to be up at 5am Tonight was a night of firsts: first actual girlfriend (that i honestly want to be with), first kiss, first time someone has told me how they felt about me without lying, first time i felt special.I'm perfectly content at the moment

How romantic and sweet. What a wonderful story!!Im so happy for you!!!

That is so great. You are very lucky friend.clapping

Ah yes, more good new. We're all very happy for you. :smile: It looks like things are going perfectly.

sob ITs so BEAUTIFUL sob Why can't we all have things like this happen sob its so nice...sob Good job sob

thanks guysI'm so happy right now. She said to me last night whilst we were cuddling that "you can't find love, love finds you"I think it must be true.

Perhaps so. My angel found me at the most unexpected of times. My life has never been the same since (that was almost four years ago). Love is wonderful. Again, congratulations, sad. And good luck to everyone.

I'm so happy things are so good for you, sadbuttrue.

I'm worried.Somethings up, I can tell...She has her cousins down for the week, and so is really busy, and she has to babysit, so that could be the explanation of it all...but I don't know.She's been telling me she has a couple of problems she needs to sort out, but she wont tell me what they are. She assures me they're nothing to do with me and that she feels the same, if not better about me - but I'm just worried...I've been told by her friend that her last boyfriend was horrible to her and that it was a very nasty breakup - but I can't help but think that she still has feelings for him I'm so worried right now...

I think you're just worrying over nothing.

I hope so, I really do.
I desperately don't want to lose her. I think I love her, and she's hinted the same thing towards me, but I'm scared of losing her. I'm such a wuss really, but you can't blame me after all the cruddy luck I've had.

I'm sure it's fine. People sometimes have personal things to sort out, and they'd rather not talk about them. It's normal and I'm sure it has nothing to do with your relationship. Anyway, whatever happened with her ex is over... Have faith

She seems somewhat reluctant to talk to me. I sent her a message over two hours ago and she hasn't replied to me, and she's usually extremely quick...I feel ill

Remember that this new girl isn't your ex. Put more trust and faith into her and you won't worry as much. I know you're afraid to lose what you have, but you need faith in what you have in order to keep it.

Years ago I was in my apartment talking with a wonderful woman that I had been dating for several months (and had known for several years). She stopped talking- I forget how it happened, but she suddenly became unresponsive and seemingly sad. I panicked. I thought, how could this be, how could it be over now? Is she planning on breaking up with me? I begged her and pleaded with her to speak to me. I hounded her so much that she huddled up on the floor and began to cry, making me feel even worse. I was so crazy about her that I had interpreted her every move as if it had some bearing on our relationship. I thought: if she was happy, then I must have done something right, and if she was sad, I must have done something wrong. I'm not sure what gave me the impression that every one of her emotions was a reflection on me. I was a fool. It turns out that she had a major problem, one that she couldn't talk to me about at that point, and one that had nothing to do with me. When I let her alone, things gradually cleared up. I had to wait weeks before she was willing to talk about what was bothering her. Yes, I was a fool to think that all of her joy and sadness was linked to me, and my foolishness almost hurt our relationship. In fact, what she really needed was for me to allow her to talk to me on her own terms- when she was ready. Give this woman time to sort things out on her own. Don't hound her and run her into a corner. She'll come to you when she needs you. In the meantime, trust her and trust yourself.

You're absolutely right.
Turns out she has some sort of recurring illness, and today it's particularly bad or something. I feel stupid now because she's just replied to me in a "leave me alone" sorta way.

Hopefully my actions wont leave a lasting mark on things to come. I'm just going to leave her to it now until like you say, she's ready again.

Thanks guys.

Naw, it's not a lasting mark. Just cool it for a while. You two will be fine.
