stop being afraid of commitment

I had this problem too. I got real close to this friend and then feelings started to develop. I felt it and she felt it too but whenever she started to come on to me, I pushed her away told her a lie about how I don’t feel the same way.
Deep down though, I knew she would make me happy and I her happy. I understand why she could never forgive me for playing with her feelings.
It was something good which I threw away because of commitment issues.

that happened with me a week ago.
i must have been giving out the signals and when she came on to me. i totally freaked out and pushed her away because i liked her but but the possibility of her liking me back would mean a long term relationship.
I konw thats what i want but just scared me.
Very scared of the possibilities too.
