I'm feeling rotten...please help.

First a warning to those who may read this. This will sound like nothing but complaining but I really need to vent.

I was doing ok. I lost weight and was feeling good about things. Then I started dating again. I met a fabulous man who I have so much in common with. We even think alike and can complete each other's thoughts. This is a new relationship, less than 6 months. Anyway I've fallen for this man. He says he has fallen for me. Sounds wonderful right? Well it is. The problem I'm having stems from fears from my past relationships. Now that I've fallen in love again, I feel vulnerable and fearful that I'm going to freak out and mess this up. There are some issues we are dealing with at this time. These issues feed my fears and anxieties. He finished a degree in a career that has no jobs available right now. He has no money and has much debt. He is living at his mom's house and has been while he finished school. He is now attending a school for a job that could pay very well (outside of his profession). The new job may start in a few months but it is not for certain. So meanwhile, I love this man. He is so generous with what he has. He is so thoughtful and loving. I've been staying at his place since he really can't stay at my place at this time. His mom is there some of the time. I find it ackward staying there since we are in our 30's. She's been nice and welcoming. I still feel so strange staying there. When we go out, I have to pay. I have a mortgage so this is not easy for me. Now we are at the point where he won't let me take him out because of my dwindling nest egg. I feel torn because I want to be with him but I feel weird staying at his mom's, I feel I'm neglecting my house and my obligations that come with the house. I feel myself becoming more and more anxious over this situation. I fear I'm going to mess up the best relationship I've ever had because I'm just not patient enough to wait it out until he is working and starts paying his debts. What can I do to calm myself and wait this out? I know logically it won't be like this forever but I keep freaking myself out.

What do I do?
