SO, I'm 27. Met this new guy (26) a couple of months ago. So the relationship is very new.
He's sweet and I want to see this out absolutely.
BUT I am going through a month of HELL currently. And may be struggling for a few more. Mostly between work and medical/behavioral issues with my cats that are requiring a lot of energy from me. Along with a handful of other personal issues I won't list.
BUT, I don't want to drive this guy away. And I'm working really hard to not over involve him in the entirety of my struggle here. Because it's too new for that. Though he's done his best to be supportive.
But I'm definitely having trouble juggling both currently. And my issues (specifically when it comes to my pets) has to take priority.
There is an end in sight, which is why I think I can manage to uphold both.
But if you were only a couple months into seeing someone you really hit it off with, how much would it take to scare you away?

Just focus on dealing with your stuff and keep in touch with him so he knows you're not going anywhere.
You're not gonna lose him if you don't make him feel like you've lost attraction to him
Pump his ego every now and then, and keep him in the loop. That's all you gotta do
I don't know how much. Explain the pressure you are under. He should understand until you get through this difficult time. Sometimes life gives us a triple whammy... death of someone close, pain and injuries, job problem, pet problems.. money is tight. Some people put up a good front, others are close to falling apart.
Wait, how do you know it's a relationship if you only just met him?
Don't you have to be "just friends first", LMAO
