Philophobia (from Greek "φιλέω-φιλώ" ( love) and "φοβία" ( phobia )), is the fear of falling in love or emotional attachment. The risk is usually when a person has confronted any emotional turmoil relating to love but also can be a chronic phobia. This affects the quality of life and pushes a person away from commitment.
