Emotions in relationships scare me. iin?

I'm very emotionally reserved. They say that opposites attract and that people who are emotionally reserved, are attracted to their opposites, which would be someone who wears their emotions on their sleeves. This is isn't for me. Emotions in relationships, be them platonic or something else, with the exception of one person, honestly scare me. It makes me so uncomfortable and frightened when someone tells me that they care about me. I tend to panic. I've sabotaged good relationships over this. IIN?

    Do you know what made you feel like this? Do you feel like you don't deserve love or that you won't be able to return it?

    It's scary and you risk getting your heart ripped out and crushed beneath someone else´s foot. But at the same time it's totally worth the risk ...
    You need to stop and think about what you want out of life, people will like you and they will tell you that they like you and that's not a reason to panic for.
    You need someone who's willing to take it slow with you and letting the trust build.

    It is daunting when you think about it, but once you get your teeth sinked into a relationship... accepting and trying to figure out the other's emotions feels natural.
