Thanks you guys! I went out with some friends tonight. I was nervous but I did it and I will make sure that I see them again. It has been 6 months since i last saw them. About Saturday..I will go. I hope. I will just have to force myself and if I lose the plot while I'm there, I'll just tell them that I am very nervous about meeting new people and hope that they will understand. I could always say that I'd rather go after tea. Is that ok or weird?
