Is it normal to want a relationship but be scared of being in one?

I'm 25 and I've never had a boyfriend. I definitely want to start dating but at the same time, I'm scared because I've never been in a relationship. Is this normal and any suggestions?

    With feelings at stake, of course its normal. But you have to bust into the dating scene at SOME point or risk growing old alone! Just be sure to find someone who understands you're situation and is looking for the same thing in the potential relationship. Dating websites can be great for getting an easy date to help "break the ice".

    And if you're a virgin then go out and get yourself laid, for Christ's sake! lol That's easy...

    Why haven't you been dating? Low self-esteem? Family? Not that great looking? Dating isn't a problem, but fix what-ever's ailing you too
