Freaking out in relationships is particularly common, much more common than people think! You're learning so much about another person and in turn they're learning just as much about you. The important thing is to communicate any worries or issues you have with your partner. My girlfriend and I always try and talk issues through before they actually become harmful. It's worth saying though that it doesn't always work and you will encounter things that are difficult to deal with, but when you face these things the best thing to do is power through and don't stop.

There might be a lot of stress working on you from previous relationships. Did anything go wrong with your relationships in the past? Is this your first relationship? You might just be nervous.

its normal to feel a little scared when youre in a new relationship. but i would suggest trying to take a few deep breaths and calming down whenever you feel yourself starting to freakout.

Sometimes you are afraid to commit to the relationship and that makes it seem scary, you have a choice between fight or flight and if you're scared you'll pick flight every time

The reason might be because you have been hurt in the past and your just keeping your guard up so that it doesn't happen again. Perfectly normal!

It could be because you are afraid of commitment which it's not something bad. You might want to take some ME time and analyze yourself to decide what's making you freak out in relationships

I think you freak out in relationships so easily because you may worry that he is not the right guy for you but not everyone is prefect.
