Hi everyone,
I haven't ever been in a long-term relationship nor long-term friendship except for 1 friend, and even he is distant from me. I am afraid I am so far stoic and aloof that I don't have adequate social skills to make a friend. I have avoidant personality / social anxiety disorder. Most of all, I am scared of losing my family. Does anyone have any suggestions for me on how I can improve my social skills? Thank you.
