<human>: I met this really great guy a month ago. Met over dinner with mutual fired and we had an instant connection. Sought each other out and after our first date we felt really comfortable with each other. It was the craziest thing I ever felt and neither of us could really explain it. Since then, we have been spending a lot of time together which is a new thing for me because I haven't had a boyfriend in the recent years that really sought out my company or wanted to be with me.

Things have been mostly good. However we have been having some issues. I feel like a lot of the issues we may have is due to the exam period we just went through and spending a lot of time together. Lately we have been arguing over little things. For example, one of us will say a simple comment that shouldn't bother the other person but then it does or one person assumes something and it turns out completely different from what they assumed.

I don't really know how this all started. And I feel like lately we haven't been connecting as much. But then again, we've been spending so much time together and this sort of dating is completely new to me and I don't how it is supposed to be. 

I think some people would just give up but I feel like a lot of it might be circumstantial. I also am not giving up on this relationship because I feel like what we have is something special and for once I know he cares about me.

I've begun trying to talk to him tonight but I kind of want your input to help me make more sense of what is happening. Thanks in advance!

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
