I find that I get so wound up about doing everything right that I get really nervous around my partner. You could be getting nervous for the same reason.

It can be normal for someone to get nervous around their partner. They could be shy and be a bit more reserved than yourself. If something doesn't seem right with the situation, I suggest talking to someone that you know and trust and possibly seeking for help if you feel that you need it.

It is very common to doubt the courage you believe you don't have to confine in someone you love about what is bothering you. The anxiety encourages feelings of burden, but it is important to remember that they are there to listen and support you.

Maybe you like her so much and u want to be the best version of urself. It is pretty common to be a little excited around people we know for a short period of time. As you know to get to know her better, u won't be nervous anymore.

Because she's an important person in your life, and you care about what she thinks. It could also just be young love :)

You either love her or you are worried she may see you differently to how you see yourself. This can be a very confusing and scary time.

This could be a sign of insecurity. Learning more about her and having her learn more about you might remedy this.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
