Needless worry about a new guy?

Well, it happened. That awesome ‘click’, chemistry, romance, intense attraction which equaled a GREAT first date. Yes, we even kissed on the first date (I couldn’t resist) and there were butterflies, fireworks and all that! We were pretty much inseparable for the next 7 nights (he even stayed with me at my house), and would just come back over after work. He cooks and cleans and treats me so well!! Too good to be true??

This past Saturday, I guess all this started to catch up with me and I started feeling a little scared, etc. that I may get hurt. Silly, I know, but we are both recently out of on/off unhealthy relationships. He admitted he was scared too, but we both made promises to not ‘hurt’ the other and NOT get back with our exes ever again. I believe him, she was toxic to him (verbally abusive and addicted to pain meds). And my ex situation was not healthy (he lied, couldn’t communicate and was a marriage-phobe). It was a good talk and we even cried together.

So, anyway, I guess I’m so afraid of getting hurt that I kinda said some things that night to push him away because of my insecurities with it all. He said that he was not letting his past ruin this and we talked and I agreed we should really give it a shot, put a lid of the ‘scared’ and apologized.

So, he stayed that night as well (we had a great day!). Then Monday came…his texts were less frequent and not as ‘cutesy’, and he bought a Harley too! I was so happy for him and wanted to be the first to ride it, etc. He acted a bit hesitant. Then later that night he said that he needs to stay with his parents the rest of the week to get things ready for his weekend with his kids. (yes, he’s been married before too). He’s staying with his folks until he finds a place because he lived with his ex and just needed to get outta her house. She was still sending him mean texts and stuff the first few days we dated and he saw that it worried me, so he blocked her number. He really is a sweet guy.

Anyway, it surprised me because he was basically saying he wouldn’t be able to stay with me again for almost a full week. He could tell something was upsetting me and I told him how I felt and that I wondered if he was having second thoughts about us, if he was scared again, or if things were moving too fast. He said no.

I’m worried that this won’t work because of both our ‘issues’. And it sucks because I haven’t felt this way since high school and we really like each other. Is he one of those ‘hot and cold’ guys that is really just going to break my heart? Am I just way off base with my concerns or is there really something maybe he’s holding back? Or…can I take him at word value that everything is good and he still feels the same about me?

HELP! lol
