I've had a few chances but whenever I get the chance I freak out and end up going to the extreme (I'm talking about like blocking/ignoring them or becoming super weird around them), and I'm not entirely sure why. I think it has something to do with the fact that I don't necessarily like commitment, but at the same time I don't like change. I think I want to know if anyone else feels like this? Or ways which I can control/overcome it?
