The thing is i've been friendless for years now, and my only real life friend or something to that extent was my psychologist, but i've had to stop seeing her since she wanted me to become more social and join group therapy, and since there are others on the waiting list to see her.
i have since joined group therapy and even though i feel a bond with the others there, i'm still afraid to talk to them once the session is over and perhaps keep in touch with them during the week.
i think this is a general fear and not just associated with the people of the group. i really wanna make a real life friend or friends, but i'm just too scared to make the first move.
anyone else find themselves dealing with something similar? have you been able to overcome and fear and try to initiate contact with others?
the thing is really terrified of trying to form a bond, and then the other person just ignores my attempts for seemingly no reason. its happened plenty of times in the past, and i'm really scared of it happening again.
