"yet at hour 23, I feel then end of the world is near."
LOL- I'm the same way!
It all makes me feel like I am 14 again. And I didn't particularly like being 14!
What is hard for me, and I think I have said this in previous posts, in my past, all of my relationships have been INSTANT coupledom, basically moving in together ASAP, vows of love within days of meeting (seriously). For the first time, I am dealing with having to tone it down a little, due to distance (he is 50 minutes away), jobs (he freelances, weird hours), and kids (we both have sole custody). So it feels very, very strange to me to not have 24/7 intensity right off the bat. I mistake time for disinterest. I keep convincing myself that if he isn't communicating with me, he must be with someone else.
Here is the funny thing...I later find out that he has usually been watching the same stupid show on TV that I am watching. However, I am sitting on the couch thinking, "Why hasn't he called yet?", and he is just...watching TV.
So I guess that makes me a goober, too. Glad to know I'm not the only one!
Start,
You sound just like me with the instant relationships and the wondering if he'll call. CG works weird hours and I don't want to text him if he's busy because then I don't want to seem needy either. I'm hoping that CG and I are still hanging out tomorrow or Thursday. At this rate I would love for it to be today, but that's just cuz I want something to take my mind off the crap day I had at school.

LOL- patience!
Yeah, I do hear you. This happened before a couple of weeks ago and it was work related. I don't know why I panic. And you are right, if he doesn't respond, I don't want this person in my life anyway. But he is so cute and nice and fun...
I think part of the panic is that my ex had so many "rules" that I don't know what normal people do in this circumstance. I don't know how to ask for what I want/need vs. being clingy and annoying. My ex always made it seem that when I stood up for myself that I was being a bitch, so I stopped doing it.
Men make me nuts sometimes.
