I have the same phobia. The only thing is, I KNOW the reason for me is not because I am afraid of dying. I am not someone who is afraid of death, and no I am not a death seeking person (honestly there is no reason to fear it). So that leaves me with questions, as I don't know why I am pushed away from heartbeats. My husband likes for me to lay on his chest, and I always have to get up and tell him I'm sorry because I can't stand to hear or feel his heartbeat. I'm not necessarily AFRAID of them or their feelings, it just makes me feel awkward for some reason.
I despise my heartbeat, so I was curious...
