Compared to my new boyfriend, I have no romantic experience and feel inadequate and afraid that I will mess something up. How do I get rid of that feeling?

I am talking to my guy friend and we are in the early stages of a romantic relationship together. We are technically dating but not yet officially bf/gf since I asked to take it slow.

He has experienced everything in terms of romance; kissed, dated multiple girls, had sex, and has even fallen in love before. While I, on the other hand, have no experience. I have never kissed, dated, touched, or had sex with a guy in my life. I never even had a male friend.

So I just feel inadequate as I don’t know how to do anything and just feel socially behind despite being 20 years old and in uni. I have told him about my lack of experience and he said that it’s okay and will guide me through it. But despite that, I am afraid that I will do something that will just result in the relationship ending since I am so clueless about romance. I don’t know how to navigate being in a relationship and I am very anxious about it.

Can anyone offer advice or tips?
