Not sure, if that's about love, or intimacy.

You mention, that you want a companion, aren't sure if anyone is going to be good enough?

Relationships are about give and take. Maybe, avoid the sleeping with a person, until you are certain?

Not sure, just trying to offer my own perspective.
I'm not currently in counseling but hope to start over with my search for a good therapist in my town. I think that will help. I think the main reason I tend to avoid and run away, not look back, rather than confront them and explain how I feel is because a) I don't know how to explain other than to say I just don't have feelings for them any more but I don't know why, and b) because I am terrified of hurting their feelings and having to witness it in person.

It's a cowardly thing to do but it's just something I've always done, since I started to dating..
