Rushing things seems to make me anxious

Post Reply New Topic

I remember the last person I met, she was eager for a relationship with me but I didn't and were both in our mid 20s but even now my mindset feels like it hasn't changed much about it despite not having met someone yet. I'm worried if my potential partner is over 25 or nearly 30 or just over 30 they might start feeling like rushing into things but I clearly don't know until I've met them so maybe I'm assuming too much and shouldn't be. I don't know whether I'm afraid of committing to a long term relationship like I was the last time because it involves a lot routine changes.

The thing is I say would like to meet someone but at the same time I'm worried about it as though the relationship is going to keep me "trapped" from doing other things when it doesn't and the other thing is sometimes I like being single and seeing some people attracted to me and appear available to a lot of people when I know I can't have multitudes of partners because that would just be wrong.

You don't wanna get trapped in a relationship with a person you have nothing in common with

I think that's why we have to shop around until we get a decent fit
