Folks, i dont have Social Phobia, but i would like to make a confession:
I dated a boy for two years. I noticed during all this time, he could not participate in any social activity, like going to a bar or to a party. When we went out, he spoke very little, stood mute. He never got a job and I always nagged him, saying he needed to work and that he needed to communicate more. He never seemed lazy and always was clever. I always told him that he had much talent to stay home.
Ditto his family, always nagged him. I do not know how he supports this pressure until today ...
But ..... A few days ago I learned that he has social phobia. I feel really bad and I feel like a villain. All this time talking and even fighting for him to talk more and interact more. I kind of went with stopping the relationship slowly. I noticed that my friends were pushing me to finish my relationship, and I gave in. I did wrong! That must have hurt him even more. After we finished he went to live in other city and I only hear any news from him once a year.
I would like to meet him again to apologize.
I thought it was something simple. But it is not.
I apologize to him and to all of you.
