Falling? Or Spiraling?

I've been told that I love too soon too fast...and I have always felt like I'm too afraid to fall in love. So I'm not really sure which it is. I do know that I have the tendency to care too much and to forgive too many things. But to actually give someone my heart is another story. Maybe I'm just confused. All I know is that right now there is someone that I feel like I am falling for and I am SCARED TO DEATH! LOL! And maybe it's just a fling, I just don't know. I don't want to have THAT conversation already because it is way too soon. The other night I was thinking how crazy times have changed. It used to be that there was no question if you were in a relationship with someone and the thing you had to work up the nerve to talk about was when you were going to have sex...nowadays, there's no question whether you're gonna have sex and you have to work up the nerve to talk about being in a relationship. It's so weird. So back to this guy...we met months ago but just through mutual friends and that was it. Then a few weeks ago we ran into each other and ended up practically spending the whole weekend together. So the first night, I didn't even really wanna hook up with him. And that was probably because I was expecting one of my friends to show up. But I did end up with him and I definitely thought it was going to be a one-night stand. But then the next night, we were invited to the same BBQ again so we spent another night together... and then the next morning he didn't want me to leave but I had to so he made me promise him I'd go back. So I did and we hung out for most of the afternoon/night. So that next weekend I was definitely thinking...okay turned into a weekend fling. And maybe it would have stayed that way. And then my drunk self texted him one night and he went to go meet me. Turned into another whole weekend of being together. Well Wednesday night, Friday night and Saturday night that lasted all the way to Sunday night. I can't claim it's all about the hookup because we've been together when we couldn't (you know woman issues LOL) and he still chose to hang out with me anyway. It's so different with him than any guy I've been with for awhile. He invited me over to his brother's...which no one has taken me to any family member's house in like 2 years! And while we were there he was sitting with me on the chair and little things like that that make me happy. It's so weird for me. I will see him again this weekend...so let's see how it goes...*sigh*
