    Love-induced vomiting..Help!

    I'm a pretty relaxed person and never got panic attacks..Until I fell in love. We're talking over 10 years ago in university. I fell deeply in love with this boy and every time we started flirting, I would have to excuse myself and run to the bathroom to vomit! I would come back and as soon as we were having an intense moment, I'd have to run back to the bathroom. I could vomit several times in one night until he'd get offended at me running off, he'd think I was just playing games with him, and he'd get cold. This happened over several months until I graduated.

    Needless to say, we never got together and it was too embarrassing for me to share my problem with him. If I had known him for a long time, I could have (maybe) shared my problem with him. But this is at the beginning of the courtship and I can only scare off someone for being this intense. That's my opinion anyway.

    I've had relationships since but nothing intense.

    7 years after this experience, I fell deeply in love again and the same scenario ensued. I'm doomed to always settling for men I don't feel extremely passionate about because I can control my feelings when I'm not crazy about them. Do you have any advice on what I can do to prevent this love-induced vomiting? Or has anyone else had the same experience? The only time I've seen such a thing is in the South Park character Stan every time Wendy talked to him, lol..
