What does it mean when my heart race when she came up about to talk to me like she wanted to fight? i'm not scared but then i don't want to fight.

Fight/flight reactio: animals have a hormonal response called the fight/flight reaction which will get the body ready when it perceives a possible risk. Part of this is to make the heart accelerate so it pumps more blood if fight or flight is necessary
