Is it normal to freak out completely when it comes to relationships?

My parents have never had a normal healthy relationship. I can't remember a time during my childhood when they didn't hate each other and fight all the time.

I feel like never having a normal relationship to look up to has effected me tremendously. Whenever I like a guy and I hear they might ask me to be their girlfriend or go out on date I get this feeling where i'm so sick to my stomach and I always back out. I always end up avoiding the guy and making it seem like I hate him when I really don't. The anxiety I feel is so crazy. In all seriousness, is this normal??

    Yeah its very understanding you didn't have good influence as a kid that's why its so hard for you, but don't worry about that, just keep putting yourself out there and 1 day you will find that special guy.

    its very understandable for your situation, but you can choose not to have the relationship that your parents have. you have to take risks and get yourself out there because trust me, you could be missing out on a lot. obviously easier said than done though.

    For your situation yeah, that's a normal reaction. But in general, no that is not normal, and I'm really sorry that has to happen to you. Wish I could help, but I'm the same way.
