dating someone new triggering binges?

[clarita]

i'm curious if i'm alone in this one because it's a totally new experience for me.

i just started dating someone a couple weeks ago and it pulled me from restriction to binging in less than a week's worth of time. part of it is because i'm eating with him, but i'm binging when i'm alone.

normally when i start dating someone new i eat less. maybe to try to look better? why is that not happening this time? i've been trying to keep our physical progression slower than i have in the past. could this be contributing?

maybe. I think that you are kind of surpressing your sexual feelings with food

"they" say food and sex are similar.
I tend(ed) to binge when I got horny and alone... :o
But now I've been in something like 7th heaven (in love in other words) and I literally eat next to nothing.

thanks. i think that is what this is.
the emotions have also been insanely intense all around, it scares me to feel close to someone like this.
i'm probably just drowning all of those feelings with binging.
now i'll stop it.
