it sounds like you’re suffering from ROCD. to tell the truth, most of life is pretty normal. most conversations are normal. if you are to be in a relationship for any extended period of time, things will get very, very normal. i’ve been in an on-and-off relationship with a girl for around 4 years now. to say the least, things get normal. but that doesn’t mean things aren’t special as well. even if i don’t realize it at the time, every moment i spend with her is special. we have meaningful conversations, and we have mundane ones. this is life. not every conversation can be a poignant symphony of words regarding some metaphysical truth. when it happens, cherish it. when it doesn’t, cherish it. don’t force anything. love is a beautiful thing. don’t let OCD get in the way of love.

thank you so much that made me feel so much better. even if this is reassurance i don’t wanna go back into the OCD hole especially in my first relationship. i’m so in love with him though and i enjoy myself even if we aren’t having a great conversation. sometimes there’s an awkward silence and sometimes i don’t know what to say which makes me worry that we’re not right for each other but i want to try and stop worrying so much because clearly it isn’t making him panic as much as it’s making me panic

I also think that, especially for people who experience anxiety, getting into deeper conversations and topics can be easier over text as you’re getting more comfortable with each other. And that’s totally okay and normal.

thank you so much. i really think this is the case because some things are difficult to discuss face to face
