First things first: psychologists say that love can make you go crazy.

The word ‘crazy’ doesn’t necessarily have a negative connotation here but it is what is it.

During the initial stages of any new relationship you are bound to lose touch with reality and create a world of your own. Inventing stories in your head is one inevitable outcome of that. Part of that is also we end up either convincing ourselves or someone else of something.

As beautiful as the idea starting a new relationship and falling in love sounds, the first few days can feel like an uncomfortable ride because you’re getting to know someone new and that takes time.

That got us thinking about the 11 uncomfortable things we all go through when we start dating someone.

1. The ‘can I call’ dilemma.

2. Will they like what I wear?

4. The first ‘my ex’ talk.
