Today I dedicate this column to all those people who are terrified of falling in love. There are three situations in love that cause fear and do not allow many to open their hearts.
The first and most common is the fear of suffering again. If previously someone treated you badly or did not value you, surely today you distrust everyone and you are afraid that they will hurt you again, so, to protect yourself, you avoid falling in love. Recognize that refusing to love guarantees you emotional protection but many years of loneliness.
The second fear of loving is the intensity of the feeling itself; It can be overwhelming! Love consumes a lot of time and energy, and those who do not know how to put their priorities in order can disrupt their personal and professional lives. Someone who has a very busy life thinks: “If I fall in love, I won’t be able to handle all my responsibilities!” Your fear is that a relationship will blur your focus and you will not be able to perform your job or fulfill your personal commitments.
The third aspect is the fear of rejection. This is the case, for example, of two coworkers who, after spending a lot of time together, one of them falls in love, but does not dare to declare his love. That’s when you face two options; confess what you feel and risk rejection or hide your feelings and continue as friends. Unfortunately, the second option could rob you of the opportunity to find the love of your life.
Did you identify with any of these fears? Fear used appropriately is a valuable tool, but too much fear stops you from entering new situations, including romantic relationships, and too little fear is also bad because it quickly throws you into love without thinking about it and can break your heart.
It’s good to experience fear, but in moderation, never let it limit you! I warn you: “It is better to know love and lose it than to never have loved.”
