superrrshawna agony aunttell him straight up!!

or, better yet, let him know that you find mystery sexy and that you LIKE the chase.

he is probably trying hard to impress you because he really likes you. let him know that it is okay to make mistakes and act normally around you!

good luck =]

OldSoul agony auntThis is something that all young men struggle with, it usually stems from a small inferiority complex, or simply a fear of losing a girl's attention and/or losing the girl altogether. In other words, he's overcompensating because he likes you so much. In cases like these, it's best just to offer some straight forward, warm reassurance. Try telling him that you already like him/care for him a lot and he doesn't have to try so hard. Reassure him that you're not going to run away the moment he stops busting his butt to impress you/keep you happy, he just needs to be himself.

In cases like these, honesty, although it sounds cliche, is almost always the best policy. I wish you the best of luck!
