Sometimes I feel like I want one and other times, I think it's the last thing that I want. I was just wondering if anyone else is like this?

The pathetic thing is that when the opportunity comes up, I usually end up pushing the guy away and breaking everything off because I feel trapped and I'm positive I'll disappoint him or he'll be able to be happier with someone else. And when he finally does leave, I totally break down and can't stop thinking about him and wish he was back. Everyone around me is settling down and I have never felt so alone in my entire life. Do we really know what we want? Do people in relationships feel happy with the way things are or do they wish they were single? It's hard to achieve what you want in life when your wants keep changing. It's so frustrating!
main thing that scares me about being in a relationship..is all the social stuff that comes along with it Rolling Eyes

I feel the same I sometimes love to have a relationship but im so so terrified that my partner will be controlling or leave me for not introducing them to family gatherings. I feel would feel trapped sometimes if i was in a relationship. Sometimes I'm dying for a relationship sometimes I'm scared of be in one.

Like someone else said, my main worry is making the other person happy, money wise ect.

My last relationship ended basicly because my SA took over and I couldnt hold a job....yeah I still feel guilty about that every day and still struggle with it but what do you do ya know.

I have a really hard time trusting females now because I've gotton screwed twice now because of something I can't help, in my opinion, most girls (and guys) can't be trusted, atleast from what I've experienced.

The good one's are very hard to find so if you got one, KEEP HIM/HER!

I can't be in a relationship with anyone, I don't trust anyone, because I know I will only be hurt because I can't stand up for myself

i know that when i'm in a relationship i always think that the guy would be better off with someone else, that i don't make him happy, that i'm not good enough. for nearly a year i haven't been in a relationship because i can't cope with all the pressures that it brings. i feel how a lot of you feel to be honest.

I'm sixteen and have never really been even close to a relationship with a guy at all. I am scared of the social obligations being in a relationship will create. And I'm afraid that because I enjoy being alone that I won't be able to mantain a relationship because I want too much space. I also have no clue what I am supposed to do in a relationship because I have never been in one, and I'm scared that they guy will think I'm stupid, or give up because I won't have sex with him right away. I am also self conscience about people touching me. I feel like I should just wait until I am an adult close to my twenties because most teenage boys my age and even a few years older just don't have the brains and personality that a little more maturity would give them. I basically feel sometimes like because there is only going to be a very limited choice on 'the one' for me that I should just screw dating because the relationship is always going to end anyway... if you get what I mean. *sigh*
