Emotional gush overload

Heavily filteredEver feel like you want to cry, but you can't pinpoint the specific thing that is upsetting you? That's how I've felt the last several days

It's always easier to post to happy parts of your life, especially when it comes to relationships, rather than the ehhh things are OK - not ideal, but OK. So try not to be swayed by what people post on the internet - especially FB. I'm guilty of it too.

What does your gut and/or heart tell you about DarlingQ? That's what you should really be listening to, not your head.

i don't know where to start responding because there are so many things you've written here that strike a chord in me. the good thing is that you know he's a great man and you've never met someone so wonderful. but you're missing something and you can't quite put your finger on it. there are a few ways you can go about this... what is it that's missing? think about this hard. if he's your best friend, ask him for what you need. think about specific things that you want him to do that will bring the thing that you want into your life

one more thing... about feeling judged. i've been there, done that. i hate to say this, but i think you know this deep down -- if you're not entirely at ease then there's something really missing. let go of yourself if you want the relationship to work, because in the end if you aren't yourself in this relationship you'll find yourself wondering in the future, "what happened to me? what happened to the girl who used to be so [insert word here]?" and start blaming the relationship.

I'm certainly not one to be giving out relationship advice (lord, have mercy!), but I say talk to him about what you are feeling. It may just be that he doesn't realize what you need in these small ways or he doesn't realize how important the little things are to you. (I'm not saying that I think that these are "little things. 'Just that a guy might think they are.)
