writes: I've been with my current boyfriend for about 5 months, but I've known him for about 4 years. I can say without a doubt that this is the happiest I've ever been. The problem isn't with him... It's me! He treats me like a princess, but I'm very scared that I'm going to mess this relationship up somehow. Both of our previous relationships weren't that great. He was set to marry his ex, but she cheated and called off the wedding (that was last year, so i know I'm not a rebound). My previous relationships did not end well, one ex cheated on me and the other ex basically treated me like a criminal for no reason at all (he was VERY insecure). So far, we haven't brought our past into the relationship, but I'm just scared that somehow, I'll mess up the best thing that ever happened to me! How can I basically not sabotage myself?

dont ever bring up the ex or his past as i just learned! if he wants to talk about any of that, let him bring it up. just go with the flow of how things are going. i wish i would have. i made the mistake of bringing up an ex in casual convo & he blew up, told me to leave his house & is now ignoring me. my own badness which caused my own sadness.

I think you are worrying over nothing here. You have both had bad experiences in the past, but most people have a history similar to this before they enter in to a new relationship. You trust your new boyfriend and you know he treats you well. Am sure you can see the difference between the way he treats you and the way the others did. What could you possibly do to ruin things? You really are worrying over nothing here. However if things are building up inside off you then you need to be honest with him and discuss your fears with him.
