Girls, help!
I have a problem and I'm hoping it's not unique. Or at least common enough, that some of you will be able to help me with it. I am very physically attracted to the guy. I'm seeing right now. Emphasis on very, to the point where it embarrasses me a little bit, how much my brain seems to turn to mulch. The slack-jawed stare with compliments on verbal diarrhea mode is not an elegant look on anyone, and most definitely not on me. What the heck do I do to keep it in my pants, at least in my head?
The intentionally lighthearted phrasing of this question aside, this is a genuine problem and my self esteem is taking a hit from all the spontaneous effusiveness I'm spouting. I'd really appreciate some help and some advice about internal verbal boundaries.
- Have a funnel of men in your dating circle meaning DATE OTHER MEN. You are not exclusive unless he makes it official and be careful of love bombing and infatuation early on.
- Relief yourself before you go (so you are not clouded by his attractiveness and your hormones had a release earlier before you met him)
- Think about how HE MAkes you feel and not how you feel about him
- Limit your conversations and dates to shorter ones
- Keep yourself busy and make plans regardless of how much you like him
- Read “All the rules” and the FDS handbook everyday
- Remind yourself that you are the prize
- Stay busy, put your phone down, disconnect and find another outlet to release your energy
