I've been with my boyfriend for just over 7 months now and it's going well. However, he's 30 and hasn't been in a relationship for about 7 years and I'm 22 and I've been in long-term relationships, with about 6 months being single in between each time, since I was 15. So I'm used to being around my boyfriend, compromise, etc.
He's been by himself for so long he sometimes finds it difficult getting used to having a girlfriend. He's busy with work and volunteering and clubs most nights in the week, so we see each other about one or two days a week. We text or ring every few days.
However, I've been getting a bit insecure recently because it's been mostly me making the plans. So I still ring him a bit more than half the time and I normally arrange when we see each other. However, we have an awesome time whenever we're together and I know that he enjoys spending time with me.
I kept it bottled inside for ages then spoke to him about it, how it was making me feel insecure. He took it really well and said sorry and that he didn't realise, and that he just prefers it when I make plans because I have better ideas than him and he reassured me that he does enjoy spending time with me, and he said he'll act like it a bit more.
So my question! I am fine with organising seeing him because it means I can do it whenever it's convenient for me and I can plan a day or two in advance and stuff. But do you think this is good for me to do if we're all ok? Or do you think he might start taking advantage of this?
Or any other advice?
