So, we were just lying in his bed, snuggled up ect and out of nowhere I say "sometimes I think I'm a little bit in love with you." and I don't know why. I mean, I like him alot, but it isn't love and AAAAH,I freaked out and he sort of freaked out but calmed down and said it was fine..I explained to him I didn't mean it and apologised but I felt SO awkward. He was really understanding about it and supportive, I freaked and went really quiet as he tried to coax me back into cuddling with him. He told me he knew I didn't mean it and it wouldn't affect us or any potential future. But I still felt so stupid. He told me it was understandable given my past ect, (I had a violent childhood and have had an array of terrible relationships as well as ongoing emotional instability problems) So, I agreed that I was just caught up in the moment and that it was a slip of the tongue. But I still feel so stupid for saying it, is there still hope for us?

Accarysin is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI've calmed down about it now, I think it doesn't help I'm an overthinker.. I always have this feeling that everything will end in crashing and flames. He's gone away for a week (on holiday with his parents) and insisted that I didn't think or dwell on it. He seems to be handling the situation maturely and for that I am thankful. Thank you for your advice guys 3

IF you two are still in contact and seeing each other I think you need to let go of the "embarrassed" feeling and stop beating yourself up about it. The fact that you CAN say this to a person you care for when your background is a GOOD thing.
Cheer up, honey.
You didn't declare war or I want your babies right now! He seem to have been ok with it, so relax.
