Still feeling awkward with my boyfriend after dating for 6 months?

[Anonymous]

So me and boyfriend have been dating for over 6 months, everything has been great and he is really good to me. In most circumstances things are normal, even when we are not talking the silence isn't really that awkward at all. It's just that there are moments when suddenly, I can feel the awkwardness all over me, for example when we ran out of things to talk to during dinner etc. I don't know, its just there are 'sudden' moments where I feel awkward... is this normal for people who have been dating for over 6 months? shouldn't all the awkwardness been gone by now?

It's normal for someone who holds part of themselves back no matter the length of the relationship.

Now I'm not sure which I believe it is... but this can ether be attributed to yourself, not allowing anyone to know you fully, always keeping an aspect of yourself in reserve, for what ever your reasons... or it can be attributed to idea, that perhaps this guy just isn't the one to make you feel secure enough in yourself, or in him, to open up fully.

there could be a general stand point but every couple and relationship is different.

They're still a human being that's why. 6 months still isn't that long, you're still getting to know each other and impress each other.

I dated my ex for 10 months and when we went for a meal, I found it awkward because we didn't have much to talk about but it could've also been because I find meals awkward in general. I've been for a meal a couple times with my boyfriend and they're weren't that bad but we've been together a year and a half now.
