Not social media friends but true friends you would hold accountable and let into your personal life bubble. That uncomfortable bubble only a close friend can be apart of.
Also what is your favorite thing to do when first meeting someone; do you want a romantic dinner or movie, or just something like a small walk or very relaxed vibe?

I am an adult yet have been abused into adulthood as well (emotional and physical). When I can move past my anxiety and can have my own place I wonder whether to stay in contact with my father- he has been hot and cold with me my whole life, defended my ill abusive mother, and physically assaulted me last year. The only thing is, I will have no other person in my family (or friends) to help me financially if ever needed. Do I still have him somewhat in my life here /there, or cut him out completely yet having no one for any extra aid. I know in order to heal I NEED to cut him out even for a bit, but it is daunting to have no one in life to be there for you ... any similar experience welcome. less

It has helped me to ease my mind a bit, as I've never dated, and I'm very grateful to ppl of AM for their open thoughts on how a guy should be ok with any abuse I've had in my past ( a lot, as in nearly my whole life). Yet I still find my mind thinking , you have anxiety about many things, who would want to BE or stay with you? I wonder if anyone here has had anxiety affect their life, particularly with dating or love, and how you maybe changed your subconscious to believing you were somehow Ok and a match for someone? less
