Letter : "Q: I'm 31, and have dated my first girlfriend for a month. Finding a girlfriend wasn't my ultimate priority (I have a fulfilling social and professional life). Still, I dreamed about the day it'd finally happen.
But now old self-esteem issues are surfacing. I feel unworthy of her, I feel the next guy must be a better choice, and I keep expecting her to call or email about dumping me. I can't shake these thoughts, and they're tearing me apart inside. That sounds like a recipe for rookie mistakes, so I'm all the more anxious.
