SERIOUSLY--This guy looks like he came off the cover of a romance novel! He's quiet, well respected. And he wants to go out with me! It's like OMG yes I can't believe it! But the PTSD in me hit the (PANIC) button, and now I want to avoid him. I haven't returned his call from yesterday yet nor even sent him a text message. He'll be at the site I am going to tonight. WHAT DO I DO?!? I know I should make some contact, somehow, and not just ignore his call. But I'm afraid of these situations. It makes me hate myself even more. A person can't just explain PTSD and make someone understand. I have no idea what or how much he and I could have in common. Of course I won't unless we get together more. He is SO good looking that I can't help myself but to consider it!

But how do I "cure" myself of PTSD?
