This is a very natural human reaction especially when your newly dating or you feel the need to impress her.

Why aren't you nervous around someone stranger?Who you don't care about? Well that's it. You are nervous, because she means something to you, because you CARE. There is nothing wrong about that.

It depends how long you have been together. If you have been together for a short amount of time you may just need to adjust to each other and get to know each other better. If you have been together for a long time, maybe she has done something to put you on edge? Or there is something about her that makes you uncomfortable that makes you nervous around her.

Perhaps you have developed feelings for her that you think are too soon to have. Or if you've been together a while maybe you think she's not as committed a you are which makes you feel insecure

Well, i think that's quite easy: you really like her and want her to like you too. So you are afraid of messing up and try to always do your best.

You may be nervous that something in the relationship may not go as planned. Sounds like youre nervous around your girlfriend, which could be from anxiety

Well it might be that you haven't had relationships before so you don't know what to do about it or you could be thinking that she might leave you or you're just worried about doing something wrong

because you're trying to be the person that you are not and you are in constant fear as to what wrong thing you may do which makes you nervous.. just be yourself around your girlfriend and enjoy her company she's not a monster she won't kill you so stop being nervous

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?
