So I started group and individual therapy for my issue with my personality disorder (NOS with mainly borderline features). I've been going for 2 weeks.
The psychiatrist I see in individual therapy suggested I refrain form getting involved in a relationship while in therapy. I'll be evaluated after 6 months and if I choose to continue I can but after one year they recommend we take a break and try out our "skills" on our own.
anyway I met a guy and I really like him. He's stable, my age (I tend to go for non threatening younger guys), responsible, makes a ood living, is kind and gentle. we saw each other twice so far but also a quick call everyday to say hi (5 minute call). I've known him for years, through business, but we were never friends or dated. Just a good rapport.
Now when he called today I asked him if he wants to do something this week-end and he said yes. We didn't kiss yet though almost but I stopped it from happening when he leaned toward me cause it felt too soon - we had ended up talking for 3 hours when I dropped by for business and there was this chemistry. I have been getting the advice that I should kiss him next time, as to not confuse him and to show him that I am interested.
I'm experiencing a lot of feelings of self-worthlessness, shame and fear of rejection regarding this new person, but I don't want to give up on seeing him. HELP and advice needed!
