I worry that something will happen on his plane trip home. I worry about being in the house alone tonight. I worry about things never working out the way I want. I worry about not being able to afford a new place. I worry that he won't want to deal with this anymore and leave.

:lpurpstar: I'm worried things will start going to hell. I'm worried that we won't work, that my hope is all for naught. I have this feeling and I'm afraid that it is so very very wrong. I'm worried that you'll never tell me that you love me and I've risked myself for nothing in return.

:lpurpstar: I'm worried that my efforts will not be good enough. I won't get into grad school, my GRE scores will not go up, that my recommendations will not be nice, that my grades will not be high enough... that my dream of getting my doctorate and becoming a professor will fail.

:lpurpstar: I'm worried that I will never stop loving her and her lovely face will haunt me for the rest of my life.

I worry that trying to be assertive about my needs/wants and re-defining boundaries after keeping the peace and not rocking the boat will hurt my friendship.
