I want out everytime i say yes to a relationship. is it normal?

I flirt normally and everything goes fine until a person asks me out. No matter how interested I was before or how nice the person actually is, from the moment he asks me out I get some kind of irrational fear. I can't really explain. But it is some kind of repulsion and I feel like I want to run away,and be clean and nice again. Is it normal? (Obs:I'm a late starter and never even held a guy's hand until I was 17)

    Omg this happens to me too. I get all shaky and I am like SHIT I DISLIKE THEM NOW, but It's not that I dislike them, it's just I'm scared as shit. I couldn't eat the day before my first date, I was so nervous and my tummy hurt. I guess this means we weren't ready? How old are you??

      I'm 18. I spent weeks eating badly last year when I was into a guy and I thought he liked me(in the end he didn't LOL).

    This is very normal. Whether someone is a man or woman, flirting can be fun to do because you are secure with the fact that you have some independence. Many things in our society tell us that being with someone is healthier and the "right" thing to do. Meanwhile 46% of all heterosexual marriages are ending within the first 5 years. It's only recently that more people are starting to realize that they don't need a significant other in their life to be happy. So with this new found sense of independence in the past few decades, it's very common for people to want "out" when someone gets closer. I'm currently seeing someone, but I'm in no rush to become a boyfriend. I like that I get to have the bed all to myself at night. I can go where I want, when I want, without having to explain myself to anyone. I can explore many different people emotionally and sexually if I choose, because just like food- we don't always want the same thing for dinner. We like variety. And right now, the guy I'm seeing is on the same page with me. We don't need to be in each other's lives every day. We see each other maybe once a month, and that works for us. Every time we re-unite, it feels like we fall in love all over again. It's a wonderful feeling. But commitments aren't easy to make when they are to other people. We can often feel very vulnerable, and we also judge ourselves harsher than others. It's a sense of insecurity to commit to people, yes, but many many people feel this way nowadays. It's nothing to be ashamed of and perfectly normal.

    Exactly what I don't get about some females.

    ''We know what we want.''

    Oh, really? Case in point! ''I really like him'' next second passes by ''Ok, I don't like him now.''

    Makes NO SENSE.

    Commitment problems. Been there, going through that. Admit to yourself that you're never stuck in a relationship and you can get out whenever you want. Don't break it off just because you're afraid! See where it goes. Don't be afraid to get close to someone.

    I am the exact same.

    I had my first kiss at 12 and my first relationship was at 16. I've only ever been in long-term relationships
