I tend to be a perfectionist too, and was advised to find someone who is very laidback/ relaxed to balance me out. Maybe you can choose someone with a de-stressing personality. I don't think that there is anything wrong with you. It's just a matter of finding the right balance in your life and in your relationships.

I wish you good luck and happiness !
I've been in therapy for 4 years. But I agree with you. I think I need to figure things out. I mean, I've made a lot of progress but relationships are just scary me. I've never really dated. I've just went on one date, and the other person I met was just a hangout. So my past and current therapist were thinking that I should try to slowly get out there. It's very hard, though.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I think someone who balances us out would be a great fit. What you said is completely right. And thanks a lot for saying that you don't think there is anything wrong with me. It's nice to hear that validation, as sometimes I truly DO believe that something is wrong with me.

And thank you very much! I wish you good luck and happiness.
