why is it that when u try to tell someone ur feelings they r also afraid of what ur going to tell them?

Answer 1

because they are afraid to be hurt, or afraid to commit, or afraid that You don't feel how They feel

Answer 2

It's how people approach these things. Usually, young people say things like "we need to talk" or "I need to talk to you, now". If you just let your feelings flow out naturally then you wont notice any fear in your partner because you are not putting them on spot.
