when you truly loved someone and they break your heart, yeah, you get over it. But you meet someone and feelings start to manifest, thats kind of terrifying. To feel either undeserving of affection or that your heart will be broken again.

i can really relate to that. Sometimes i feel like both things u mentioned.

Truly afraid to get my heart broken again. So i can relate to this post

@96Icarus69: b i n g o !! I can understand that bud...but lonelyness sux, so hang in there & keep faith. Stay strong & keep an open mind!! Peace bro ! :-)

Call me crazy, but, as long as i have the beatles and rolling stones to listen to, sing and dance to, im peachy. Though nothing can substitute the love of a good woman.

i know that feeling.... I am going thur that right now!!!!

I'm in a new relationship and haven't been in one in about a year. I was feeling that a lot and freaking out a bit, but I know that no matter what happens I can put myself together and there is always someone else in the world.

I am scared to even get those feelings to start what scares me is when our song plays and a smile comes on my face. I think I am scared to lose him even tho we are over. Is that crazy!!

I had that problem a couple months ago. I was afraid that I might not be able to date and I scared the hell out of me. In fact I had to cancel our date about 2 times just so I could make sure I could date. By the time we went out, it felt natural. I quite enjoyed it. I still get jittery but not as much as I use to. I just stare fear down and just go for it now and go with the flow.
