Is it normal to not be able to express my feelings ?

I have a hard time telling the people I care about the most just how important they are to me. I don't know how to tell them or show them trhough my actions. I feel like if I express myself to them they won't feel the same. Or, if I get too close to someone that they will leave. is it normal to not be able to express myself or get close to anyone?

    I don't express my feelings properly. Which I think would be kind of the same thing.. I just don't know how. I just get extremely angry when I'm alone and no one is around or cry when I'm in the shower. I push people away when they get to know me.
    I get told i smile alot, but its just a mask.
    Don't worry about it. I'm sure everything will work out in the end.

    I'm the same way, I fear opening up to people because I'm always afraid they're gonna get bored of me and leave. I also am seriously afraid of getting hurt (again). Completely normal. I agree with the above statement, try not to let fear get in the way of expressing how we feel.

    Extremely normal.
    You shouldn't be afraid to express yourself to these people if they mean so much to you though.
    Don't let fear get in the way of telling someone you love them, especially if it's actually true.
