Even great relationships can bring up anxiety.

You’ve met someone new, and everything seems to be falling into place perfectly. The connection is strong, you enjoy spending time together, your attraction grows deeper with every moment, and your values align in all the best ways. But despite all these positives, you find yourself overthinking and questioning everything.

Do you find yourself Googling phrases like “how to know if they’re the one”? Or maybe you’re constantly comparing your feelings now to past relationships or checking in with yourself to see if your attraction level measures up.

If this sounds like you, you’re not alone—you may be experiencing relationship anxiety.

What is Relationship Anxiety?

Relationship anxiety refers to worry, doubt, or insecurity that surfaces within dating and relationships. It often manifests as overthinking about whether your partner is truly right for you, obsessing over how much they love you, or being consumed by fear of making the wrong choice.

This anxiety can be particularly confusing if you’re transitioning from toxic or unfulfilling relationships to a healthy one. Why would anxiety show up with someone who treats you well, when it didn’t with partners who were unavailable or avoidant?

Why Relationship Anxiety Happens With Healthy Partners

1. Deep-Seated Fears are Triggered
Healthy, supportive love can bring up subconscious fears and wounds that have been left unhealed. Past experiences, childhood traumas, or previous relationships may have left lingering scars that surface when we’re finally in a safe and nurturing connection.

Fear of Unworthiness: Being treated well can feel unfamiliar and even overwhelming. Deep down, you may have beliefs about not deserving love, which can cause anxiety and self-sabotaging thoughts.
Fear of Rejection or Abandonment: The possibility of getting truly close and vulnerable can heighten fears of being hurt or left behind, even if there’s no evidence of this happening.

2. Healthy Love Challenges Familiar Patterns
If you’ve only experienced toxic or avoidant partners, genuine care and consistency may feel foreign. When something good comes along, you might doubt its validity simply because it’s new territory.

3. A Sign of Meaningful Intimacy
The irony of relationship anxiety is that it can indicate you’re experiencing transformative intimacy. Healthy love invites us to grow and confront our fears. These feelings may be uncomfortable, but they often point to areas ready for healing.
