8 altibajos emocionales de una relación casi amorosa

Al principio, te sientes emocionado

Cuando las cosas acaban de empezar te sientes excitado, igual que al principio de toda nueva relación.

Su nombre aparece en tu teléfono y sientes mariposas en el estómago. Cada vez que te dicen algo, te sonrojas.

Tu hombro rozando el suyo por accidente se siente como fuegos artificiales.The chemistry between you is strong – it’s like a constant electrical feeling.

Te sientes vivo y esperas que esa sensación no desaparezca nunca.

Entonces, te sientes confundido

You were convinced that you were heading towards a real relationship, but suddenly you feel like he’s sending you mixed signals.

You’re no longer sure he cares about you as much as you care about him.

It seems now like you’ve been fooling yourself into thinking that one day you’ll become a couple.

You constantly try to figure out what’s happening in his mind but it’s all for nothing because one minute you feel like you have it all figured out and the next you’re back to square one.

They always have a way of doing something that keeps you on your toes, so you never really know where you’re headed with them.

Ya no tienes paciencia

Sometimes you feel like you are still on the right track to becoming a real couple, and those days you’re fine with the way things stand between you because you can see it all as a path to something better.

Other days, you are really impatient for your ‘almost’ to make the damn move already.

Estás seguro de que les gustas y se sienten atraídos por ti, y estás seguro de que les gusta pasar tiempo contigo. ¿A qué esperan?

That’s why you’re constantly questioning yourself

¿Deberías dar el primer paso? ¿Es ESO lo que están esperando?

Maybe they are just shy and want to wait and take things slowly and you’re here blaming them for simply being the way they are. Hmm?

Te pones celoso

You see them flirting with other people and realize you have no right to be mad at them because you aren’t committed in any way and you have no rights there.

It makes you annoyed – to say the least – when they do that, but you aren’t officially in a relationship so what can you do?

They have no obligation to stay loyal to you, but that doesn’t make you feel any better about things.

It’s starting to look like they have none of the obligations of a relationship, only the benefits of one.

Empiezas a asustarte

You’re starting to feel your emotions for this person getting stronger every day and you get really scared that they’re going to hurt you.

At the beginning, you had a huge crush on them and it was fun, but you weren’t as involved as you are now and it was easier to just let it be an almost relationship.

You’re starting to fear that you’ll leave this almost relationship with a broken heart, and you’ll end up suffering over a relationship that was never even a real relationship.

Ahora parece que hubiera sido mejor que nunca les hubieras entregado tu corazón.

Estás decepcionado

You imagined spending more time together, going places, meeting each other’s friends and family but suddenly they’re gone.

Se siente super raro llorar una relación que ni siquiera existió.

En tu mente, las cosas estaban empezando a calentarse, pero en realidad ya habían terminado contigo. Sí, te sientes triste.

Pero, sobre todo, te sientes decepcionado porque han cortado la relación en el momento más emocionante de tu nuevo amor.

Finalmente, te sientes aliviado

When you’ve had some time to think it over you actually feel relieved.

Te sientes afortunado de que la casi relación ha terminadoporque, de todos modos, nunca fue un trato real.

You feel like you’ve gotten your wings back and you can fly off and find new love.

You’re no longer stuck wondering how they feel and what they are going to do next.

Ahora sabes que lo que necesitas es una relación sincera con alguien que te quiera, se preocupe por ti y desee lo mismo que tú.
