You're probably afraid he'll find someone else. Don't worry.
Try to talk to him about it! Maybe you'll find a solution.
Maybe you could make it so when you feel anxious you could text him ^^

Maybe You are worried about being replaced or being alone. It depends. I don't really know what you mean by going out. But that's my opinion.

Because you feel that he may hurt you. You are afraid of losing him. When he goes out he has the chance of meeting someone nice and in your opinion, someone that can take him away from you. Everything happens for a reason and you obviously care a lot about him. you should tell him you feel that way and work something out. If he's a true boyfriend then the only thing he will ever want is for you to be happy.

Maybe you're anxious whether you can fully trust him or not, or worried something could happen to him.

Maybe something happened to you in your past and your afraid your boyfriend will do the same, after being hurt so bad it’s hard to get past the people in your life now isn’t the one or one’s that hurt you. Finding out the cause, start the heeling, forgive and closure

Its all right to feel that way sometimes. Maybe you feel so because you have had some nasty experiences in past. But you must have faith in him. Thats what relationships are all about

That could have to do a lot with trust issues. I sometimes get very nervous when my girlfriend goes out. Mainly for the fear of her getting hurt, physically, mentally, emotionally -- something while I'm not there. But i have learned to trust her and just be ready if she needs me sometime,

Because he may see some other person and choose them over you, or just get into trouble in general and nobody wants that.

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?
