No, what scares me is the absolute demandingness of the women I have been with, I start to feel that they don't see me as a person but someone to do this or that.

Never scared of being in a relationship. Just those times when you might be falling in love with them and not sure they feel the same way. But love is a gamble and one I'm willing to take can't stand back and say what if all the time. At times you just have to see what happens and hope for the best.bigsmile

I have a friend that is going thru this, so I thought I would ask... how common is it that the partner suddenly gets cold feet and leaves?

Not because I was afraid, there was a time I didn't want a relationship I was in the healing mode of life. I was very upfront and honest telling them I will not be in an exclusive relationship at this time. If you go that route with me or if you start getting to attached then I am gone. I did that mode for about 2 years. I don't think I have ever left a relationship out of fear of being hurt. I have left a relationship when I knew it would end in heartache for either person. Does that count.

Actually quite common, happens a lot in marriages (just an example)...don't know what it is honestly, seems they are afraid to be treated right? Could stem from some childhood truama, typically does...but outside of that I have no clue.

Humm if they do it very often I would say they have issues they need to deal with. There is normally a reason one pushes another away that gets too close in a relationship.

I just don't understand how people can really be scared of being treated right. But I see it all the time. Makes no sense to me.

You and me both, not much we can do...they have to help themselves before anything can come of it. Problem is, without explanation, most people aren't willing to wait it out.ohwell flowerforyou

because they are so use to be treated badly that when someone comes along that treats them nicely they question the other persons motives

It hurts when someone you like changes their mind on you. You really can't afford to beat yourself up as to why, though. All you can ever do is communicate honestly and live your life the way you always would.

I'm sure you'll agree, we all have enough problems without trying to worry about the indecisive ones too, hm?
