@newlife123: I’m unsure on the fear of commitment after writing it but if I think about it my biggest fear would be my partner leaving or finding someone else more interesting/fun? But surely that’s something we all fear – committing completely to a relationship would always fear their partner running off with someone else? Along with that though, anytime it does hit the 6+ month mark I always tend to start getting bored and think about my options – whether we’re good together and if I could do better, if I’m actually happy etc. I don’t think I’ve had them sort of fears with her though.
Committing to someone was never a problem, it’s always a case of whether it’s been the right person. I’d always felt she was, some doubts naturally but I’d even told her I’m with you for the long haul. My biggest fear right now is if I can’t let go? Truth is the more days we’ve had speaking less and not seeing each other as much has kindah freed me of all that thinking but when I do think of anyone else or starting building a future with anyone else – I feel all glum and sad again. Even more so, I’m scared that with these new insecurities I’ve not felt before, I’ll probably feeling the same way in my next relationship which is unfair.
Thanks again, Adam
