HELP PLEASE‼️

i just don’t know if i’m in the mental headspace to be in a relationship because i’m just so fucked up. he’s so sweet and loving and deserves someone who isn’t depressed and insecure. i don’t want to put the burden of my mental health on him because that’s just not fair. all my friends keep saying that i’m just nervous about having an official boyfriend for the first time, but i’m worried i’m gonna end up hurting him by trying to fix myself through him. should i tell him that i’m not ready or should i wait it out? i’m so stupid, pls help.
