Relationships

It is always interesting to me just how easy it is to allow a relationship to derail in the early stages.
This seems almost counter intuitive at first glance as you are in the early good phase where everything seems possible and your partner can do no wrong. However, it only takes one misstep, miscommunication, or moment of insensitivity. In reality it is this phase of a relationship you are much more likely to make said mistakes, you don't know your partner as well as you think an d this is when you start learning about each other. This can be a positive experience that allows the both of you to grow in the relationship; it is a good opportunity to move past old baggage(if possible, this is not always the case) and to build a real level of trust. Conversely, you can begin the recriminations, accusations, and loathing of your partner at this point. It really just depends on whether you really want a healthy relationship or just more of the same(based on the assumption that the previous relationships did not work for whatever reason......not that they were bad but that they did not work).
I however am very grateful that my hot gamer girlfriend Lindsay and I have been able to weather the storms that life has thrown at us in these last couple of weeks and it gives me hope for the future...........because I love her very much

This makes me feel insecure, which illustrates your point perfectly. What's really on your mind?
