I’m a pretty socially anxious person. I don’t have many friends, the ones I do have were from college and we rarely see each other. I recently had a very short lived friendship with a girl who I believe had BPD or something similar. Im in my early 20s, It’s become clear to me I need to try to find new friends before it gets harder. I’m great at socializing once I start talking to people so that’s not a huge issue. I’ve found some new activities that I didn’t have before that are fairly social events. However the first step is so hard for me. I feel like if I try to walk over and make conversation with someone a spotlight turns on over me. Any tips from someone who has felt the same way?
