Hi everyone, I need some help and advice.

I have just recently met someone from a dating site and I had my first date with her on Saturday and my second today, and I am getting strong feelings about her, I am not sure if I am falling for her, I read the other post that someone wrote about this subject matter and a lot of people described the feelings as - warm fuzzy feeling when your going to meet them or when your with them, smiling whenever you think or speak about them, and when your not with them, feeling like a part of yourself is missing - well, I feel like that when I am with her and now I am sitting here like a part of me is missing, all I want to do is be with her.

I cannot stop thinking about her, she is always in my mind, and before anyone mentions it, it is definately not lust, I have experienced lust before and this is nothing like that, I keep telling myself to take things one step at a time and all that, but, I cannot control my feelings and thoughts, so, am I falling for this person or am I just being silly ?

It's like feeling half mad and a bit ill! :) But lovely at the same time I guess.

I would think that after only two meetings your feelings are based on infatuation. You have probably been feeling neglected and a bit lonely for a while now, and went through a phase when you felt nobody would be interested in you again.

After this, it is only natural that you would become infatuated with someone who has shown some interest in you. It would be best for you if you realised that these feelings have more to do with where you are right now than the other person.

If you really want things to work, try and hold back on these feelings and don't rush anything. Spend time together and get to know each other slowly. There is no way you can know you are right for each other after two meetings, so try and find common interests that you could do together and see how you get on.

Take things slow, see how things develop. Try not to push things or seem too needy, as this can be a big turn off.

Some good advice snook, thanks, hard to stop feeling this way though, but, I am willing to try and control my feelings more, I have not shown her that I am too needy (I hope) but I have informed her that I am crazy about her and that I cannot stop thinking about her, so, I am going to do what everyone keeps saying, I am taking things slowly and at her pace, she is in control of things, not me, so, that way hopefully she will feel comfortable with things.

Anyways, thanks again guys and gals

There's a diffrence between falling for someone and falling in love with someone. If you like someone and feel a connection with them, then that's great, but don't read too much into it! Just go with the flow.

Well, latest information is that we are now an item, boyfriend and girlfriend, it is official, yay.

I asked her yesterday, she said yes, I have not been happier, I could not wish for anything better.

She is the best thing that has happened to me since the birth of my son, so, I am enjoying every second I am with her.

Thanks for all the advice though.
