    Social Anxiety

    While I might post a lot of Posts that make me appear smart and Confident, It's just a cover up for my lack of these.
    I don't know how to comfortably start a conversation with a stranger. Cannot hold eye Contact for more than 2 seconds.

    It's hard for me to look up, so I tend to look on the ground.
    Never had a girlfriend.

    I'm saying that nobody's perfect. Everybody has their Flaws. And it's okay.

    Just want to put that out there.
    I'm on the same path.

    I also got this problem, I can't speak in public clearly, I get to vomit whenever i'm in the center of attention and I'll always skip a party just to stay home in my safe bed. It's a thing i want to get past but i don't really know how

    Lots of people have this problem. You have to practice to get over it.

    Dude get an actual hobby. Go exercise. If you have a dog take it for a walk. You also need to have a goal and start working towards it.

    If I was in your hometown I wouldn't mind us going out and getting you some hookups. If you have friends who outgoing they should invite you out to only talk to women. All I wanna say dont be afraid of therejection be happy and at least say well I tried and keep pushing.

    first of all if you are below 19 or something, dont worry at all it will be fixed as time passes. if you are older than that you need to gain your self confidence and then you will be fine

    I feel you dude. Nobody's perfect at all. I did have a lot of social anxiety so I barely made any friends.
    I started to improve this year and made friends from my favorite hobbies like basketball and video games.

    Anxiety is a normal byproduct of our untouchable freedom as human individuals. So you will always have it knocking on your doors. The question is how do you respond?
    You asked me if I was in the meth business or the money business. Neither. I'm in the empire business.

    Correctly and well said, we have anxiety, what makes us who are suffering from it bad is how we respond to it, how much attention we decide to give it. OP and everyone else shouldn't feel bad about "never having a girlfriend," I can tell you from experience you first have to be confident with yourself and love yourself before even considering having a girlfriend. Exercise, work out, take your dog for a walk. Make a goal for yourself, but start step by step. A good start will be waking up and walking a mile for a week, then jog a mile, the two miles, then three, etc. Confidence comes from within, so tell yourself you can, and you will make eye contact with this and that person, sooner or later, you'll get used to it.

    If you need someone to talk to me, anyone reading this, feel free to add me on skype.
