Have you ever felt more vunerable after feeling more for someone? It's like the deeper you go, the dark consumes the light of your confidence...
I am and it's unnerving.. Before, my feelings for Anthony were there, but not quite as strong as they are presently.. So back then, nothing really concerned me - I wouldn't get hurt if anything were to happen.. Now, my heart practically revolves around him and I can't seem to gain that confidence back...
In addition to my secret insecurities, I also feel that I don't know how to convey my feelings without looking stupid.. I spent so much time wasting my affection on a prior psycho ex that romance feels like such a childish thing to appreciate or pursue. Despite this, I have done SOME subtle things for Anthony to try to give him a taste of how I feel.. Just recently, I snuck and left a fake rose on his seat during his class with a note that said "To represent an undieing love".. He thanked me for it, but I don't think I got the reaction I was hoping for considering the balls it took just to do something so "mooshy".. Besides that, the romance seems almost one sided.. He'll do any errands I will ask of him and bring me flowers every now and again (mostly when there is an occassion), but I have told him that I would prefer flowers more "out of no where".. Still, he doesn't seem to break his pattern *sigh* So when I do these little "surprises" - it sometimes feels once sided.. Ultimately, I don't know how to express all this to him without feeling like a stereo-typical woman

I'm way too into romance. I'm addicted to love, life, and tragedy.
I'd allowed my love to go wasted on my last girlfriend. It just fell, ignored, onto the ground around her feet. Eventually, I resented her for it, allowing me to spend that time and emotion on her fruitlessly.
Currently, I'm on the other side of the coin. Feeling numb inside. I find myself unable to deliver the attention and love that my new girlfriend requires of me.
Typical male, but not at all typical for me.
I saw your strips on your profile pic. I'm somehow hypnotised by horizontal stripes. It's like a fishing lure to me.
