Is it normal to feel this way about relationships?

I've never had a real boyfriend, but I really want one. Picturing myself in that type of relationship makes me uncomfortable though? Like thinking about someone else actually liking me that way, seems so weird and it makes me anxious. I think it might have to do with my low self esteem, but I'm not sure. I feel like I end up avoiding anyone that might like me... I just cannot picture myself in a relationship at all, but I really want one...

    I felt that way too. It gets easier once your actually in the relationship.

    It's normal but you shouldn't let that worry you.
    I don't think it has to do with self-steem, to me it sounds more like you are overthiking something before it even happens.
    It's ok to phantasise about the future but don't torture yourself. You'll be ok. :)

    You are overthinking things way too much. Just give yourself a break and go with the flow. Everything will work out just fine.

    Sounds like self-esteem issues.
