It can take time to get comfortable with someone, even in a relationship. It's normal. Maybe it's trust issues, maybe it's the past that could be affecting it, maybe it's nothing but nerves. It's okay to feel that way, maybe try to talk to him about it?

It could be that you are just so attracted to him that you start to get nervous when talking to him or even seeing him. It is usually completely normal to feel nervous or excited around your boyfriend. A stomach full of butterflies is common, so you probably have nothing to worry about, but if you start suspecting something is up or not right, and that’s why you feel nervous, you may want to give this some thought. A small conversation with your boyfriend is all you will need to get your relationship back to usual.

It could possibly be a negative situation where you have lost trust in him or he has become violent in the past. You possibly don't even consciously want to acknowledge that those situations did happen so your body is reacting to your fear involuntarily.

well ..you are with the person with whom you are about to make your memories together and wanna make your life in a happy and wishful way ... so its pretty much common that you get nervous at times .... but .. being nervous is also a good thing ... cause you feel much more excitement and just pour your mind and soul .. with that person .. so you always feel more or it :)

In a good way or a bad way. Those butterflies and heartflutters can be wonderful. If there's an underlying concern about his treatment of you or others, you may need to get this relationship some serious thought.

I used to be that way, I was just a little scared of being judged. It took me a while to finally be comfortable and completely myself around him. :)

If your just starting off your relationship, you'll still be nervous at first. You always are. Trust me, I've been there

That's because you haven't told this to him that you are nervous! Try sharing your state of mind with him and tell him that you are nervous. This will lighten your heart and you will start experiencing a less nervous time with him around :)

People can feel nervous around their boyfriends because they are non-stop worrying about what he will think about them.

A partner is an important person in our lives typically. They can have a major impact on how we view ourselves. Sometimes we can be a bit unsure or fearful of looking bad or being judged. Sometimes we just struggle with confidence. It probably depends on the situation. If you explain more, maybe we can come up with ideas why or maybe one of the ones I mentioned makes sense to you?
