We’re both Christian teens. He’s 18 and I’m 17.

We met in May and he asked me out after a week of us meeting, but I got to know him better instead which he understood. We started dating a month ago. (Being asked out so soon had made me uncomfy, explained why in the context)

My bf constantly wants to call me which I understand since we’re in an ldr and can’t see each other often and that’s like are only way of communicating, but I require lots of alone time so I find it a bit clingy? Then again, I feel like his behaviors are healthy and he just wants to spend time with me, but I feel like I’m just not used to being treated well.

He wants to marry me and says he wants to take care of me and already asked if I want to move in together when we no longer live with our parents. So I feel like l I’m just scared I’m going to be hurt or something even tho my bf is very supportive, sweet, and generally I can’t complain about the relationship.

The only thing is his view on the LGBTQ but other than that everything is good I guess. I feel like his mind would change if I told him my personal experience with my sexuality to be honest since he just seems ignorant of what the struggle is like and just doesn’t understand it to well. (I’ve only had same sex attraction after developing PTSD which literally changed my brain mind you).

I have yet to tell him I’ve been abused or have had PTSD before especially because his family are friends of my parents so idk If I should even say what my parents did to me since they’re sorta better to me?

For context: I have been abused mentally really badly and have c/PTSD as a result, so my brain constantly looks for what could go wrong. (I have worked through this in therapy and it’s way better!). I just need a clear assessment of the situation please because I really don’t want to lose a good relationship.
