How to suppress the excitement?

I've met someone and we're a great match. We've been sneaking off to see each other and getting a buzz from the adrenaline. My question is, how do you suppress the excitement when you're at home? I get butterflies just from a text message and I'm walking around like a grinning idiot half the time. How do you tone down the glow up?

Suppressing excitement? Well, if you happen to be of the male persuasion, I would guess some strongly structured underpants...? (Female? Can't help you there, I'm afraid.)

Ah a lovely successful post...but just be careful about that grinning idiot at home, you will arouse suspicion especially if you’re not normally that way.
Enjoy the moment, cherish the memories but just remember what it actually is...

If I can recall (it has been a while, unfortunately, since I have been in that situation! But I just used to try to remind myself...deep breath...calm down ...and relax and look forward to the next time you speak/meet 😊

Compartmentalise your brain - when i was 30 i was assessed for a new role the pyschological tests were continuous all day no coffee no breaks it ended laying on the couch being asked questions which you could only answer with one word like describe your wife in one word! Describe your weaknesses in one word. Least to say the interviewer was gorgeous! She ended the session with youve past the test - and you will be ideal to have an affair but you wont know my name or ever see me again! Just compartmentise your brain home is home affair is affair not at home! Must admit lockdown had been arduous!!!

The days will come when you also bring home some of the wrong feelings about your ie. That is just as noticeable to your partner, because they know you and to a certain extent it's a tacit acceptance. But don't abuse it.

I agree with Gemini2310, go with it and ride the wave, life is too short!

I’d start watching comedy programs like 9 out of 10 cats does countdown. Just have a really good laugh, let it out and no one will know...

I’ve been seeing my IE for two years. I haven’t seen him physically since before Christmas, and not seen him naked since September. I know that the second I see his alter-ego name pop up on my phone (yes, he has my number), I have to suppress a daft grin from my face. It really is a lovely feeling and I’m not actually sure I want to stop it!

I’m pretty good at compartmentalising (like a bloke ..) so when life was normal I’d be on a high after a meet but be able to say I’d had a lovely afternoon with a friend. Not a lie. ..
