we’ve just kinda been acting like a couple and not addressing what that means? and it’s what i wanted us to have someday so i don’t want to take a step back but also i feel like we both could’ve benefited from a little more distance for a while and i don’t know what to do. i’m happy as it is, but i REALLY like her and i don’t want to fuck this up by launching into it before i’m healed from the last bs i went through. what do i do?

kinda hard to have a healthy relationship if one or both of you doesnt know what you want. situationships tend to not go well in my experience so personally my only recommendation is that if you really think its worth staying you need to really be prepared for things to end.

we’ve both got some kinds fresh wounds from our past that haven’t really had time to heal, but life kinda just threw us at each other so we didn’t get the chance. also i’m kinda just getting out of a bad depressive episode and i’m scared that my happiness is leaning too much on this going well and that that’s gonna have negative effects down the line

having your happiness based on the future of a relationship without a clear definition in the first place is kind of scary. do you have any close friends you can talk to about this?
