Philophobic

Philophobia- "fear for falling in love or being in love" The risk is more acute, when you have confronted any emotional turmoil relating to love in the past.



Defining The Problem
Philophobia is defined as the abnormal, persistent and unwarranted fear of falling in love.

Every year, the phobia causes countless people needless distress and so many abstain from getting emotionally involved.
A restless feeling of being betrayed in love pricks you and unrests your mind. You do not feel emotionally secured in life. This eventually affects the quality of life and pushes you away from any sort of commitment.
It also triggers various symptoms in you that may incorporate sweating, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, feelings of dread, nausea and feeling of restlessness.
The worst thing about fear of being in love and falling in love is that it keeps you apart from your loved ones and drives you to a painful solitude.
You feel alone but every time a situation arises for commitment, you get panic attacks.
The symptoms are very irregular and vary from person to person. These include sweating, nausea, rapid breathing, shortness of breath, feelings of dread and extreme fear of not being able to live up to promises.
Reasons Giving Rise To The Problem
Bitter experiences of the past maybe a crucial reason why you do not want to get tangled into a relationship again.
You may fear rejection and that pose as a great reason of embarrassment that deters you from even getting involved with anyone.
