That’s great,more better if it goes easy Didn’t read until now ..

Good stuff man, well done you and I’m happy for you as well

Congrats! Good it went well.

I’m worried about this man, I am worried its all going to go wrong and I am still wondering if I really like here and afraid that I am leading her on- She wants to go 10 pin bowling, next Saturday, I said yes, but I can’t help thinking something is not right, maybe It takes time to build up trust, etc.

Tbh, I’m questioning whether I can actually deal with a relationship rn, I am just knackered a lot of the time with CFS/ME, it’s hard to do anything. She is being nice about it though, it’s nice.

My biggest health issue is cfs/me not mental health.

Take the pressure off yourself to be falling in love and just enjoy her company. Not everyone has love at first sight. Plus, thinking too far into the future puts too much stress on s new just budding relationship. Just go out when you’re able and let yourself enjoy her company

What do you think of just being friends with her? Are you up for a platonic relationship? I know they are a lot of work, but they can be worthwhile with the right person.

yeah; I get that, I think my God wants me to Bare with her and see what happens, I feel like she is a gift from up above, & it might just be me bc I have a very low libido and I’ve not had good experiences dating and I don’t like myself very much so why should anybody else always comes into it, I am trying to admit that I must have good qualities, she said some nice things about me and she seems like an honest person.

The date went very well today, I played 2 games of ten pin bowling then we had a burger and non alcoholic cocktail, She beat me at pool then I took her for a walk around a Loch in a park, My legs were a bit weak (cfs/me) but she was really nice about it and so we sat down 5 or 6 times on the way round.

She does sound very sweet, @Daydreamer. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, though, okay? Relationships are stressful, and I’d hate for you to be stressed because of things you feel you should do. Stay true to youself, and I think you’re going to do great. :slight_smile:

Thanks, I thought I should try spending more time with her so I asked her what she was doing Sunday (Today) maybe I could swing round her area and check it out, looks nice out there.

@Daydreamer ,I think that good relationships are measured by how long you are becoming to know someone,and it must take one step at the time.I think you should stick with her ..

I LOVE volunteering at elderly homes! You meet the coolest people there, and they have so much to say and share.
