What I'm hearing is that you feel you don't connect as well with people as others do. It sounds like you said you worry about this a lot. I can certainly understand that.

I think, however, you might try relaxing and being in the moment when you're with people. I think some of that anxiety I hear you're feeling in social situations might be a barrier to open communication. Rather, I think you should concentrate on being genuine in your relationships instead of worrying about others will accept you.

It's worth a shot. I accept you. You seem like a nice person to me.
