thank you. It's really hard. I am always telling my therapist about how I "just don't seem to like a lot of people" and she tries to re-assure me with "I think you are just very selective, you are not inherently a bad or unpleasant person to be around". I don't know if I will ever be able to get over the relationship hurdle though. For instance, currently I am very attracted to my cousin's brother-in-law. We have met several times before but for whatever reason this time, I had the hots for him! I don't think he is interested in me, although he is super nice and friendly. I was able to share it with his sister and my aunt, they didn't think it was ridiculous or funny and they didn't make me feel bad about it. I don't think anyone is going to tell him, it is going to have to come from me ultimately. I just can't stop thinking about him even though it's been 2 months since I last saw him.
