Hi guys!
I actually need some advice! I have recently been reintroduced to a wonderful guy. He is actually my dad's boss's son, and while we have meet/seen each other many times before, it has been several years since we've seen each other. We randomly ran into each other a few weeks ago and hit it off immediately. We have been spending a lot of time getting to know each other since then, although we have not officially been out on a date. We are going out this weekend for the first time.
Here is my dilema. He is a diabetic - a very serious diabetic. No, I'm not that shallow, I don't have a problem with him being a diabetic. I have enough health problems to know this route! He was actually in a car accident yesterday because his blood sugar dropped so low and when he went to give himself his shot, it went into his bloodstream and caused him to pass out and wreck. He was okay, just sore.
My problem is, I tend to be very "motherly" (as one guy called me) and "worry". I know it, but I can't help it, it just happens with me. I don't really know how to handle this situation. I don't want to seem overbearing by being concerned, but I don't want to seem like I don't care either. I'm not really sure where that happy medium falls. Do I voice my concern, or just keep my big fat mouth shut? I'm afraid that asking him how he is feeling may annoy him, but I'm also afraid if I don't ask him, he will think I am not concerned.
The fact that he has diabetes makes no difference to me, as far as him as a person. We have hit it off very well so far, and I don't want to push him away with my annoying worries. I would really like to spend more time getting to know him better, and I just don't want to start off on the wrong foot.
I know, this is probably something I shouldn't be worrying this much about, but I am for some reason.
Help!!!!!!!!!!
worrisome and whiney...
