I think it has to do with my anxiety and being afraid of what people think so I don't even bother talking to nice people. Even when they are nice and give me a compliment. I'm hopeless and will remain friendless forever. I used to think who cares but not I'm starting to think I'm a bit too old to be shy and I need to be more social but its so awkward for me. Does anyone feel the same? or have good advice? (besides the obvious just talk, it isn't that simple for me.)
