Is it weird to get super overstimulated by my bf when he’s the same one that is always able to help me when I’m overstimulated??

Genuinely what do you do in this situation? Because it’s one of the reasons why I’m afraid to date

Definitely not! I kind of have the same issue with my brother, he always understands when “my social battery runs out” and makes excuses for me to other people, but for some reason he can’t fathom that HE also makes me tired 😭 like he thinks he doesn’t count or smth lolll

Best thing I’ve learned is to take a step back for a moment, and tell him that I’m just getting overstimulated and need a moment, and then when I’m feeling a bit better to talk with him about what may have caused it. For me at least he’s always been understanding and comforting about it
