Generally a fear of intimacy, can run alongside a commitment phobia, it is a fear of getting involved and/or too intimate and yet it is a massive contradiction, because the person actually craves intimacy, love, security affection. The fear of rejection is so great that it causes the person to reject a relationship, sometimes from the word go. These kind of fears are generally inherent in people that have suffered a traumatic childhood, Child abuse, loss of parents, lack of parental love etc. Do not underestimate this phobia, it is completely debilitating to the sufferer. To fear what one wants most, is probably one of the cruelest phobia's that exist.
