Perhaps one of the most tempting reason to try to control your other half is to get reassurance/
Does she/he like me?
Does this relationship have a future?
Does he/she think I am attractive?
WE all feel vulnerable in a new relationship because we don’t know where we stand. Asking them one of these questions, however, is an unfair step. Worse still, asking such questions puts an unnecessary strain on a relation that has just started. Its like urging a child to become a doctor when she enters kindergarten.
So, relax and surrender. The less urgent you feel about getting their reassurance, the most attractive you will be.
