Well, if everyone wants to be successful in their love life. We have to get rid of our bad habits or problems. And how do we get rid of our problems? We have to admit them first! Surely we all know our problems. Admit them, and let's see where this thread goes.
Me first!
I'm protective. Well, maybe not as much as I used to be. I kind of worked on that problem for a while. Also, forgiving your girlfriend for cheating on you really helps tone that down.
I can't stand being alone. The three weeks I spent being single after my ex-girlfriend left me. I felt meaningless. I moved into my next relationship a little quickly. I admitted to love in about a week. I move too fast. Even though my going fast in this new relationship is actually making things go really well. It was risky.
There we go. Those are my problems. What are yours?

-i use humour as a defence mechanism, pathologically.
-i'm too polite at the beginning; not always clear about my boundaries
-when i get mad i just wander off instead of losing my temper; it's a control
thing, i think
neat thread. i'd love to know what people do in their relationships that they are proud of, too, but that's another thread.

i am quite passive in a relationship with someone i really like and admire. I'm just scared of acting stupidly. Another problem is insecurity then i just end up protecting myself and refuse to love. it sucks.

Well let's see...
- I always feel like I'm bothering someone when I'm trying to get to know them, and I can't read the signs of when I am or am not, so I play it safe.
- I can't read ANY signs and I'm almost in a constant state of being oblivious.
- I also revert to humor, even bad humor, as a defense mechanism when nervous, which doesn't always work out, which makes me MORE nervous.
- I tend to over-analyze things that bother me as well as others.
- I tend to over-analyze things that I say as well as situations that I am in that would be simple for others to complete.
- And my biggest of all right now, I always think that someone I'm talking to has an ulterior motive for them being kind to me. I've lost a lot of friends this way.. unfortunately.
- Oh, and I never know when to ask for a second date, or even if I should. Should I wait for her to express a specific interest in the first one before asking for a second? Or should I go by her reaction the night the date is over?
- Finally, I always second guess my decisions as well as myself, which leads to problems, which leads to me not getting who I want. Stupid self confidence.

I can't stand being alone.
Thank you, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I don't trust myself anymore, because I know I hate being alone, and I know that I'm consistantly desperate, and I'm afraid I'll just end up hurting someone if I try and un-alone myself.

I am also somewhat afraid to be alone. Even when I'm single I always try to somehow make a connection with someone even if it is for a brief moment.
I am a compulsive flirt. Once I actually reach the relationship point.. then I do the complete opposite.. I feel that I might be missing out on someone else and then I start to judge my reasons for being in the relationship. So I start flirting with people. I will never go as far as cheating, but the attention is what I seem to want. Even before I start the flirting process I tell them I have a boyfriend. Then it comes to a point that I made the guy fall head over heals and I can't do anything about it. Which in turn gives me a lot of guilt. Yet, I still feel alone or in need of something.
Aye, what a life...

do you have something in your eye? lol sorry couldnt help it
Just tell her that you like her and would she like to go out to a movie or something casual so she feels more comfy (movies are good because u don't have to talk the whole time so you will get more comfortable until the convo flows more easily)

but i have to say one thing is i have trouble keeping a womans interest level up.
no clue why. but other than that i have it down pretty good now.
