Hi all,
Thanks very much for all the advice, much apprecated.
Irox19 - yep makes complete sense. Perhaps I was being a little crude and superficial. I think it is just a reaction to this happening regularly and the fact the I am desperate for my mind to snap out of it. I do genuinly like this girl and wouldn't be so crass to only expect one thing from her.
Hung John - that makes complete sense thanks. It really is a comfortability issue with me and I know this will help.
Perhaps to provide a little more context and to touch on why it might be happening, I came out of a 6 year relationship at the end of last year to a girl I loved dearly. It took me a long while to get my shit together and every girl I have been with since I felt ok to start dating again this issue has occured. I know that it is mostly because things are new and unknown and also exciting, but I can't deny that there is still at the back of my mind the thought of my ex.
Anyway, I just had a great weekend with this lass. Spent time getting more comfotable with each other. After discussing things a little further we realised being comfotable is an issue for both of us. But by the end of the weekend my mind and friend downstairs were working in synch (finally!!) and my new girl was very happy to assist manually without me even having to ask. 'tis all about being comfotable.
So looks like the monkey is finally off my back. Thanks again for the ears and the words!
