So I'm not a person that goes out on dates...ever. I find the idea of dating to be time consuming and too emotional. When I like a guy I automatically want to be in a relationship with him. Of course, this is only after I have gotten to know him. Not by dating though, just by friendship. Is this weird? People seem to date all the time, but I don't get whats so great about it.

The thought of hanging out alone with someone I don't know creeps me out. I also don't like it when complete strangers come up to talk to me. It makes me so nervous I just want to run away. Is there something wrong with me when it comes to trusting people?

There is a guy a really like now. This is the first guy in 12 years that has included all 3 of these things: I like him. Feel comfortable around him. And he shows interest in me.

We see each other everyday, yet, I'm not sure if we are dating or friends. I so hate dating. Why can't we just be a couple?

You might want to ignore that last bit about the guy I like. I'm just wondering whether me not being more receptive to strangers in general is odd or not?
