Do you ever question your relationship because it's going so well?

Is this common? Do you ever think "it's too good to be true" and start to look for reasons that it would mess up?

    Hi Leia

    Yes it is common when we are in a greagt relationship to think "it's too good to be true" because of several reasons:

    1. We can't see what our our partner in the relationship can see ..all our good traits, how good they feel when they are with you because our warmth and openness and all that is special that makes us who we are

    2. We have low self-esteem and feel we don't deserve to receive so much love and caring and friendship and yet it is exactly what we are contributing to the relationship

    3. We don't trust the good times so we bretter not trust them and gotta doubt and do negative unconscious things to sabotage our relationship

    Yeah sometimes... I often find it difficult to comprehend that it is actually possible for someone to like me, and I unintentionally start to look for things that could potentially mess things as a way of testing to see if they really do like me - It's a horrible thing I know, but it's difficult because of my lack in self confidence. Once you can accept that it really is legit and your partner genuinely likes you, you'll no longer think about it 'being too good to be true.' Just as long as the two of you are best friends and yous completely trust each other you'll find you no longer consider possibilities of things that could go wrong.

    Yes. I definitely thought that with my husband. Probably because I've never dated anyone I had so much in common and what I WANTED in a man. I definitely think that's a good thing.

    Ya. 9 times out of 10, there is nothing left to really analyze to try and create a "bad thing", so you can justify you're relationship. You're safe. I would just sit back and let the good times roll!!
