Your feelings don't dictate your actions. Your actions and choices are your own; your feelings just happen to exist at the same time and place. But just because you stop feeling anxiety when you avoid the guy doesn't mean that it was the anxiety that made you do the avoiding. Your feelings don't have any control over you, because you are the one that chooses your actions. While it seems that the anxiety is the cause of the avoidance, this is not actually true. You are the cause of the avoidance.
