me and bf, different wavelengths...

ok, me and my bf have been going out for a month now. we weren't friends before hand, we met a few times at parties/clubs during a week, and then had a first date, which went really well so i asked him out within a week of meeting him.

maybe that was a mistake, maybe things were moving too fast, we slept together withnin 2 weeks.

now i'm feeling like i still don't really know him, even tho we spend 3/4 evenings/days together a week, but i just feel like we are on different wavelengths and don't click...

i dunno...i'm getting myself worked up about this in my head, and need to calm down, cos i don't wanna talk about this to my friends...could you guys help me think logically abot this?

i think i just don't wanna split up with him, could someone help me figure out if there is any hope?

You might grow to become like him.

I felt like this with my ex-girlfriend and soon enough we were clicking.

There's no reason to break up with him if you get along well. Give him a chance to get on the same wavelength!

well i dunno if we get on that particularly well...
i mean there are definately other boys that i get on so much better with. but i don't wanna go out with them...

sometimes i feel awkward talking abuot certain conversations with hm about, which i don't think i should. and sometimes he makes jokes that just aren't funny, which i am kinda upset about, but i don't know if i shold just leave it, cos honestly they're such lttle things...

i dunno...do u just have a feeling it isn't working?

how long should i leave it before i do take any action (and what action?)?

if you were the same wave length yould cancle out :p: geekeyness coming through there.
why do you feel you dont know him? do you not talk about yourselves
make a joke about EVERYTHING.

that might help.

no we do, i know a lot of superficial things abuot him, like what he lkes, where he comes from, family, friends etc etc...
but i don't feel like i know him. like what he woul do in certain situations...but does that just come with time?

(and surely if we were on the sam wavelength, we woul increase in amplitute?)

and how long do i give him?

comes with time love.

If you just dont like his company, explain it. Maybe he feels the same and your both just torturing yourselves.

A relationship is based upon trust.

yeah, i'm scared i'm putting a lot of pressure on it cos i'm also scared it maybe a rebound relationship, even tho me and my ex (of 18 months) split in aug. and as much as i try to stop myself, i do compare them to each other (not that i want to get back with my ex in any way). but the fact was me and my ex got on soo well, we had so much in common...

so also i find it hard to competly trust him not to hurt me (not partucualrly cos of him personally, but just people in general).

hehe that always happens.

To be honest, with my ex-girlfriend I did the same as well. I realised that she was nowere near as fun to be around as other girls I had been out with.

I'm quite a material guy and I am looking for a long-term relationship now, so it all depends on what you want really.

I think (my personal opinion, mind you) that if you aren't clicking after a couple of dates/weeks, there's no point in being with that person. Like someone on TSR said, the guy should push all your buttons... And while it's hardly possible (we've so many hidden buttons :rolleyes:) there should definitely be some connection, things in common and it should feel right. So if it doesn't, it's no ones fault, he's just not your guy... And the longer you are with him, the harder it will be to break up and the more opportunities you'll have missed. That's what I think...
