I have been with “Ben” for about five months. We both have young children and have not yet met each other’s kids. So we have limited time together. Typically every other weekend. We make a point to see each other when we can. Typically we grab dinner and just hang out and have sex. Which I’m fine with because I feel we both have a very high sex drive. However sometimes I start to think it might be all that he’s looking for. He denies it and says he really enjoys hanging out with me too. He has called me his girlfriend twice.

Just the other day he says he feels we are at the next level. I asked him what he meant And said that he occasionally mentions my name to his family now. but not too much just in case. ??? I didn’t understand that and should’ve had him explain more. I thought it was sweet however now I feel like I’m moving too fast is my entire family already knows about him and even suggested him coming to a family trip in Summer if we have met the kids at that point.

Who are also some things that I really enjoy my relationship. I enjoy when I know I manage thinking about me whether it’s by texting me or calling me or sending me flowers. Whatever. I just like to know that my partner thinks of me often and wants to be around me. I don’t get this from Ben. He texts me occasionally but sometimes it’s only once a day. I have mentioned to him that I like to be texted a bit more or have a daily phone call and he did change but it didn’t last long.

I could mention more of my needs to him but I hate to seem too needy . It could all be my fault since I am not communicating it to him. But I feel like I’m slowly starting to drift away and not as much into this relationship as I was before. I just have break up’s.

I know this post seems kind of all over the place does anybody have any suggestions or are or were in a similar situation? What did you do? I don’t know if I should stick around and wait it out to see if it improves or if I should just sit him down and tell him exactly how I feel.

Oh and another note he is off of social media but still has his account. And I noticed on his Instagram his followers and the people he is following always changes. I understand if people delete or add him but it doesn’t make sense how the people he is following would increase if he isn’t on.

I also have not mentioned that to him because I don’t want him to think I’m not obsessive.
