Default 2000 Civic EX auto keeps on stalling

My car keeps on stalling. It started when I was tryin to park into a parking spot. It would shake a little and it dies. Today my car shakes at low idle and then dies. It also dies when I am driving. I have an automatic. It just shakes a little bit and then it dies on me. While I'm driving I won't know it stalled untilI try accelerating. The car didn't overheat or anything like that. In the process of driving for 10 minutes i had to restart the car more than 20 times. It just kept on stalling. I had difficulty restarting the car a cuople of times but usually it starts right up but then it dies again. The funny thing is that the next time I drove the car I didn't have any problems. Yesterday while I was driving on the highway at around 60-70 it kinda sputtered felt it was goin to die but it didn't.
Anybody know what the issue is? I tried searching but usually this is because of the heat during the summer time.. This happened to me at night and it was around 70 degrees. Thanks for the replies.

I noticed that it dies on me when I let go of the gas.

no mods at all. its stock.

I think you may have a IACV problem. Let me look it up in the helms manual. Is your check engine light on?
