How do you stay composed when you're in the stage of the relationship where you're falling for someone, but you're not a couple or even sure if the other person wants to be with you? How does one keep infatuation (and lust) at bay when getting to know someone? My relationships always fall apart in this stage because I get too eager and start smothering the other person. It's like my logical mind takes a backseat to my emotions and I can't see clearly until the feelings have faded. I've experienced much heartache in my life.

Stop overthinking, it stops you from "being in the moment"

If you like the person, and they like you, then you shouldn't have to worry so much. Just take things slow, and don't overstep any boundaries.

Granted, you're going to have to overstep the boundaries eventually otherwise the relationship won't be able to flourish.

It's confusing, but don't overdo it unless you have to. If you overthink, start getting anxiety, etc then you're more likely to fail. Kinda like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Think of it like this - if you do nothing, never take things further because of anxiety, then you fail automatically. Keep that in mind, you're bound for failure if you do nothing and are too anxious.

Now, you have nothing to worry about and nothing to lose knowing that you're gonna fail going in. Realize that failure is a learning experience, but if things work out, then great.

Don't expect anything going in, I guess is what I'm trying to say. Expecting too much is what brings you to that anxiety/smothering stage where you feel like 'oh shit, I have to do this otherwise X will never happen'

Try to focus on getting to know him/her as a person and just enjoying their company rather than expecting a relationship. If things go well, the relationship will come as a side effect rather than the goal.

Why not just find someone who likes you back and doesn't play childish games when dating?

If you like her, show it. if she doesn't like you back, why would you even want to be in a relationship with her?

Only women and extremely attractive men can afford to act like this

How do you find out you like people if childish games are their requirements for standard attention? The ratio of "nice people to talk to" and "please cut off my ears" in certain places is appalling

Fap. Fap like your life is dependent on it. Should help. Before you send her message full of nonsence, fap. Before you go on date fap. Chill out.

Sadly this.

because attractive people don't give a fuck. they know there will always be a next. just emulate that behaviour and you will be just as attractive.

I'm pretty sure having the "right mindset" won't change your bone or muscle structure, hair, eyes, teeth, skin, dick, vocal cords etc.

This. Acting any other way just shows the other person right off the bat that you're someone who believes that there will be a huge gap between them and the next suitor. It's an instant turnoff.
