The other thing is, I'm terrible at building close relationships, really good at building acquantances but suck at getting closer.
Also, when you went to barnes and nobles, did you mean you met people there as in they'd be randomly reading books and you'd go say hi to them and start talking?
Thanks once again  |
yeah like sit down in an area with hopefully 4 cushy chairs....
up north we had barnes and nobles with
two floors plus lots of to-do stuff, music area with ear phones, plus the coffee shop where u can sit outside or in. it was awesome. all ages hung out there from teens on up. conversations were springing up from hanging out. i didn't understand what my T meant at first and would go there, purchase the books and
leave. he asked me how it was going and what i did. when i told him, he said NO
, i meant for you to
sit down. i'm such a doofus!
as for relationships, trust issues, etc. i would definitely bring this up in therapy and hold your T to it til you find resolution. you don't want this to hold you back.
you can deal with your family issues, we all have'em, but if it were me i'd want individual sessions on things that hindered
me or i wanted to change for the better.
