Is it normal to avoid people you love, not to get hurt..?

I always feel this way.., being so distant to people I love.., other says " I am totally afraid to be rejected" some says " I'm a bit nervous for being left behind sooner" Is it normal to feel this way?

I love them so much they were very special to me but how come I want to avoid them with the fact that I really wanted to be with them at all times?

could somebody tell me how and why I am like this..,

Is It Normal?

  • If I know I have no chance then I stay away no matter how much I want someone, sometimes I even push them away which never ends well. If you love them though and you have a chance why avoid them? Lifes to short to be afraid of what may happen. You'll never know unless you try.

    • Whats really odd is.. That special someone.. It might just happens he/she wants you.... Think about how many times the avoiding and almost pushing away out of fear, was all for nothing :O?..

      If us humans had no fear, it would all be so much more easier to go for that thing.. Damn.

  • I kinda do this. I'm so weak, a weak weak weak human being when it comes to that.. if i.. Well may i say care about someone who i'm not sure.. Likes me back... Then that's how it goes..

    I must retreat and back off... Me getting rejected?.. I would.. I don't even, the results would be horrible... It's not i completely avoid that person... But, i do my best not looking like im really interested...

    What can one do?.. Weak weak WEAK

  • I don't think it's normal or healthy and I tend to do that myself.

  • Avoid as in ignore, or do you mean being emotionally distant?

  • I think the quotes you put up pretty much describe it. At least that's around the lines of something I would say.
