Hey, I'd love some advice on how to rein myself in. I have a new bf of 3 months. I'd been single for 9 months after splitting with a guy I was with for 8 years.

I never expected to meet anyone, and he is lovely, kind, handsome, caring...I love spending time with him, and he says he loves spending time with me too:) In fact, last week he told me he is falling in love with me:)

My problem is that I keep wanting to be able to look into the future, to fast forward a year and see where we are. I guess that is because I am starting to feel like I am falling for him, and maybe I'm scared of getting too attached to someone when our relationship might not work out in the longer term. I haven't said any of this to him, obviously:)

I guess I'd like some advice on how to not think about/worry about how things will turn out in the longer term, and how to prevent myself falling too quickly for him. Thanks.

[OP] Thanks, Aunt Honesty, I am definitely enjoying every day :) I guess I'm just excited and scared about the future too, but don't want that to affect anything. I'm probably just being stupid but thanks for your reply.

aunt honesty agony auntYou cant help how you feel and its not rare for people to think about the future and what it will be like, its obvious he is falling for you as well so you shouldnt have to worry. Nobody knows what the future will hold but try and just enjoy the relationship at present enjoy every day and just be happy.
