Thanks so much for all the advice everyone. I don't really talk to many people anymore to be honest. I make a comment here and there on people's myspace or FB pages. That is the extent of it. I do not have any good, close friends and I am certaintly not friends with any of my ex bf's. I do not try to be self absorbed, but i can see now that i come off that way to others. I feel the need to isolate myself from people and I often tell myself that most people are out to hurt me in some way. I have been sheltered most of my life and i've never been good at making friends or being social with people so that contributes to a lot of my problems i think.

I think that we could probably benefit from seeing a therapist together, but he isn't currently working so he doesn't have any type of health insurance at the moment. I do, but not sure if just my insurance would cover the both of us. I have no clue how to find a therapist in the area who would take my insurance or do the therapy free of charge. We are really broke and can't afford to pay a lot though.

My bf has expressed to me that he is afraid to be completely open with me about his feelings cuz of how i may react. That makes me feel even worse and i also assume that what he is hiding is not good. I need him to be able to be open with me if this is going to work out.
