I read something dealing with guys who show how they feel about a girl, and that being a bad thing. From a girl's/woman's perspective, what's an acceptable level?
Although my last little fling was riddled with issues, I believe something I could've done better was control my emotions and not let her onto how I was feeling. I think for an instant I had things under control and then I screwed up by divulging too much. I think that kind of pushed her away.

Well, guys who never show any emotion or affection are irritating....it's like pulling teeth and then we feel unloved, unattractive and it all goes downhill. On the flip side, a really touchy-feely sensitive type sometimes makes us feel like we aren't with a 'real' man. I just realized that I never really felt safe with my ex-husband....like if something happened (dangerous) he would NOT have my back......... he was a puss.
Somewhere between macho & puss is where you want to be :-) If you like them, show them but do NOT smother them. No one likes to be smothered, regardless of their sex. Playing the waiting game too long and you may lose her for good!

Some girls really love the strong, silent type..until they marry them. Then they complain about it. Some women say they want men to share their feelings, until they meet a man who shares a little too much.
Women have the same issues with men, by the way. Men say one thing, but don't define the boundaries.
Just some signs you may be over the top:
1.If you go to a chick flick, and she's the one handing you a tissue.
2.Most women want attention, but there's a point it gets scary. If you call her and leave a message, let her call you back. (Make sure you leave a number). Getting home and finding 15 calls from a guy makes you really wonder about his mental state.
3. Saying "I love you" on the first date. Yeah, sounds cute in a romance novel, but not really a good thing.
4. Talking about the future before you've dated at least 4 months. You really need her to be comfortable with you for awhile before you go there. Even then, start slow and see how she reacts.
I've been proposed to a couple of times on the first date, or after just two or three very casual dates (go to the museum dates), and I have to tell you...it's not comfortable. When some guy who's only known you a week says, "You're the woman I've waited my whole life for", the instant reaction is to wonder how he can even begin to think he knows you well enough to feel that.
I'm not saying it wasn't what he felt. However, it was too much, too soon.

you can never show enough emotion in a realtionship. the trick is finding a girl that loves that about you. emotions are what make the whole thing exciting

let the girl tell you how she feels first, then bounce off of that. it's perfectly alright to tell a woman you love her. she'll appreciate it.
