So I’ve never been in a relationship before and now I have a boyfriend. Lots of people are saying things (not bad things, they’re just giving me more attention than usual) and I hate this sort of attention and I’ m kind of freaking out. I really care about him, but I feel really anxious just thinking about the whole situation and I think it’s making me think negatively about the whole relationship.

So because people are aware you are in a relationship, you no longer wish to be in a relationship?
People will be aware, people may talk, but a relationship is about just two people.
So be your best you for your significant other, and forget the rest!
In this it’s not about speed it’s about quality. Don’t jump to have sex, look for the love!
Just chillax. The thing about relationships is that it usually makes people feel better about themselves, which makes them look better to other people. Because of this, many people will either comment on your relationship or they’ll start noticing you in general. Get used to it, because this is basically what happens- and it’s a good thing.
Right now the best thing you can do is talk this over with someone you trust. You could try talking it over with your boyfriend and ask him how he feels about the attention and how he deals with the difference in how people treat you. DON’T tell him that you want to break up or are second guessing the relationship, because then he’ll think that you just want to break up. I really don’t think that you want it to end, you’re just shy. That’s why I think it’d be better if you talked about this with a friend or family member first and just kind of felt your feelings out.
