me and boyfriend have been dating for 4/5 months and i think my anxiety is kinda driving him away. We used to be mushy and gross and now his number one issue with me is how much i worry. its creating a drift between us. he is so paitent and kind and awesome but i cant help myself from freaking out about how he feels about me and its driving him away.

The relationship is young and you are now coming out of the honeymoon period. That is when we tend to forget what we liked about the person in the first place and we start to notice the niggly things that bug us. You cannot help it if you feel anxious. If your boyfriend was your soulmate, or the one for you to spend the rest of your life with, then he would care about your anxieties and make allowances. If he loved you then he would go out of his way to ensure he did his best to keep you away from what makes you anxious and worry.

There's plenty of fish in the sea Eleanor. I think you'll be better off going to find one that really does care about you and not waste any more time on this one.

He tries his best and he listens to me but sometimes i just freak out on him and he doesnt know what to do and asking for constant reassurance is not a good look. i wanna be with him for as long as i can be and i dont want my anxiety to ruin it. he really is a great guy.
