Is it normal i feel uncomfortable thinking or having the opportunity to..

I have dated one person...but..not really "dating" it's was just..something but I always felt uncomfortable having an opportunity to ever date someone..I only like to imagine it..I guess I fear commitment? But I hate showing that I care for something or someone..could that be a part of it? Idk it's hard to explain but I need advice so..please n thanks :)

    Hey , you sound a lot like her, I'm sure it's along those same lines for her, gonna persist .
    She's had one hell of a hard life too but there's definitely some shyness thing going on too around guys . Like she's full on around her friends but I'm sure she's covering it's all front with guys , maybe the mum and all her boyfriends over the yrs- been pretty crazy for her.

    Thanks a lot, gonna hang in there.

      Stick with her if you care about the times she's there. I get like that sometimes, mostly bc I have some really negative past experiences & trust me it is HARD to not let them affect a current relationship somehow. I've also been an incredibly shy person so its like you want to show crazy emotion but are afraid to bc maybe its not appropriate or you don't know how. Just smile and appreciate every moment you have. It's not bc she doesn't care, its just she doesnt know how to show it

    Sounds like trust but do you even actually want a relationship ?
    Anyway , it's pretty common understandably, can be confusing tho for a guy .
    I almost completely gave up on my girl because of stuff like that , just couldn't work her feelings out. Well she ain't mine yet but she just got back from being away a mth and it was only during that I realized she might feel the same so to speak.
    But I asked for a hug before she left and she smiled and did sort do a quickie but then back right away really quickly. I began thinking she did want to but it's something like your saying with her and first thing when she got back I'm picking her up and hugging her I've missed her so much .
    Well I did , she had a big smile and sort of fell into me straight away in return too but next minute she was over the other side of the room again - almost ran backwards afterwards.
    And now , as usual, she's been back 3 days , and she's been nervous , not showing anything much , hard to get more than a word reply out of her and only just last night is she loosening up again so I'm back to confused.
    It always takes her 3-4 days to show any spark again and start asking me stuff back and sort of grabbing opportunities to be near me or mess around.
    I almost gave it away again only yesterday .

    Still not sure but hopefully when I see her tonight she'll be yet better again if I know her .
    She's a great girl and person / friend to her her friends but I dunno she just takes a long time to give at the start , hoping it's a good sign tho.

    Anyway , a genuine guy will wait for ya , just go with your flow.
