I can't eat! Is it because I'm in love?

Question - (21 January 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 21 January 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hi, so just recently I told the guy I fancied that I liked him and we agreed to try going out and would move slowly, which is good enough for me.

I have known him for three years, and we have been together only 5 days since I told him on Sunday that I liked him very much. Which I wouldn't have done if two friends hadn't pushed me to do so.

Now this is not a problem as such, but I have noticed that when it comes to eating, I cannot bring myself to. I get these butterflies in my stomach that seem to stop me. I cannot understand it because I know I am hungry yet cannot eat. Is it love do you think? I certainly feel very strongly about him even to the point where I told my parents that there is a big age difference but they would either have to like it or lump it.

Luckily my friends have been very supportive and my Mother has come round. It is just my Dad now, and that is not to bad either because now he isn't giving me the silent treatment. But even now with these worries out of the way, I still cannot eat.

Already my boyfriend has begun to notice I am not eating anything and is jokingly teasing me about it and asks why and I keep thinking either its because I am head over heels already or just the excitement that I have got him.

Oh well, anybody got any ideas? Because my stomach is not used to being deprived of food lol

sammi star agony auntaw this is so cute! I definitly think it's all the emotions your experiencing, you've been nervous of what your parents would think, you're excited at having got the guy you've fancied...it's perfectly normal, I barely ate a thing for weeks when I first got with my boyfriend because I was so excited and happy! Sounds crazy doesn't it and my friends noticed and used to tease me about being love sick. Don't worry though, your appetite will return :)
