Wikipedia: Cold feet
Cold feet is a phrase that refers to a person not going through with an action, particularly one which requires long term commitment, due to fear, uncertainty, and doubt. A person is said to be “getting cold feet” when, after previously committing to a plan, they ultimately do not carry out the planned course of action.
