’ve been dating this amazing woman for almost two months now. We see each other two or three times a week, she’s met a few of my friends, and we always have a great time. But I still haven’t asked her to be my girlfriend because I’m terrified of two things: first, that she’ll think I’m moving too fast, and second, that I’ll say it in such an awkward way that she’ll get weirded out. My last relationship ended badly because I got too intense too soon, so now I overthink every single word. How did you find the courage to finally ask, and what exactly did you say that worked without making things uncomfortable?

Dating women is easy. Treat them like a friend for a couple days, then hold hands a day or two, then just take her to your place, and that’s taking slow btw.

If the right time comes you will find the right words if she is the right one. Don't worry

Yes.

Why?

It's like.....Monica Lewinsky and the cigar.....

Monica loves cigars.

Freud smoked cigars.

Freud was a mental health professional.

But, Monica knew nothing about mental health.

So, I agree with you for these reasons.

This posting should be moved to the Dear Abby colounm.

I see these relationship questions are becoming more frequent.

Perhaps admin could include a Jerry Springer forum within the the ASEAN NOW Community Pub.

That's not really a Thailand problem, it is probably a kid with a problem back home, or maybe just another fake one

Yes a Springer section, an Emoji troll section and I'm a Trump hating nut section.

Would say don’t overthink it. Just go with the flow and let it happen. If you’re focusing on every word, you’re setting yourself up for failure imo. Just be yourself.

Neither health nor Thailand related. Closed.
