Single Mothers & Dating

Got another question... I've been feeling moody the last couple days. Probably due to the stress of getting everything ready for Halloween. or just tired from the busy weekend. Whatever the real reason, i feel moody. My question is how much of your moodyness do you share with your BF? EC sensed it a little but i just said i was exhausted from the busy weekend... which, i think, it the reason.

But, then i noticed this exhausted feeling is affecting my negative thoughts and \ or causing me to feel bothered by some things that maybe wouldn't bother me on a less moody day. For example, EC shared some stories of his past dating experiences... it's part of his past and maybe it shouldn't affect how i feel today... without getting into details, would you share your thoughts about it to him, if you were me... or just let my moodyness pass and see if i still feel like talking about it later. Cuz maybe it has nothing to do with his past but more about my own past? Maybe it's because i'm afraid of the other shoe dropping in this relationship? Maybe i'm feeling clingy, i dont' know? Maybe i'm just entering a deeper level of connection and i'm scared... if that's the case i should ride out the bad mood.

thoughts on how you deal with feeling moody. who do you share it with? how do you ride it out?

thanks,

Honestly, I can say that I am rarely, if ever, "moody". Cant remember the last time I was in a bad mood. But if i was? I guess I wouldnt really share it - especially in such a new relationship ... i think I'd sort of let it ride & see if things looked or felt better in a couple days. Maybe its PMS or something.

But if there IS something he does that bothers you, like talking about past loves, then I thinkj you should tell him. But i also have to say that unless he is bragging about them, or talking about them excessively, I dont see why it would bother you. HC often will bring up his long term GF of hte past (of 3 yrs, broke up about a year b4 we met), only in the way of "Once, whne I was dating so&so ..." - but if it seemed like he was reminiscing or something, THEN id be totally bummed.

yes PMS... i seem to get moody once a month... usually the week before my period. He just called me to say "hi"... that put a smile on my face.

his stories are like he's bragging about past conquests.. i'm sure it doesn't mean anything... nothing for me to worry about. i used to do that too but noticed that it made guys insecure, so i stopped. i keep the conquest stories amongst the girls.
