I just got a new boyfriend last week and i love him a lot. everything is going great and nothing to complain about. however, it doesnt really feel any different from when we were just friends. we are both kind of busy so we havent had too much socializing time.... and we are both shy and newer to dating...what can i do? is this normal to not feel much of a difference?

You started dating him last week and you already love him??? That's a bit fast, huh???? The relationship is only 7 days old. Of course you aren't going to feel mad passionate love. Dating is about getting to know someone inside and out. So, at this point, you can't know much. And you can't LOVE him. Just take it day by day. Get to know him a little more each day. And by God, don't think sex and physical activities means you are a strong couple!

You are still adjusting to each other, the best thing to do is to have a date in which you can be romantic to him so that it's much different from being your friend. Be patient along the way, you may feel some insecurities or jealousies in the beginning but be cautious on it because commitment is very hard. Just think love is sweeter and happier when both is having a good communication, you have already a foundation because you are friends to each other, explore LOVE!!!

Ya, but if you really want to feel a difference you have to step up and make something happen. Like do something romantic like dinner, or a movie, or just a night in. since u say ur newer to dating maybe he doesnt know quite what to do, and if you know what you want him to do, then you should tell him. The first step to a healthy relationship is communication, remember that!! The feeling your feeling is also maybe a little of a let down because all the feelings leading up to asking you out, and maybe how you envisioned it is not happenin like you want it to. Just relax, don't be so worried, and talk to him!

Maybe what you need is quality time with each other. You say you're both busy so make time each week to spend with each other whether it's going out to the movies, dinner or whatever it may be. Get to know each other better.

Congratulations for falling in love with your friend. It's great that it doesn't feel much different. Many people love someone but don't like them. To like & love is the best.

it's totally normal. if you've only been going out for a week, of course things are still going to be a little awkward. if you were friends before, you'll have plenty of things to talk about and the more you talk/hang out, the more comfortable you'll be with each other. this happens to everyone...at least with me! good luck!

Sometimes life is busy, and it doesn't have to feel any different ... it just has to feel good. The most important thing is to feel like YOU!

it's normal because you guys aren't doing more than what you did when you were friends... plan a night that you both can hang out and go do something extra!! you guys like each other, don't let yourselves ruin it!!!
good luck!!
