In a party, in a meeting with my partner's friends(that I try to avoid badly, I don't want they see my poor social skills...), I am the one who looks for an excuse to play with the owners' dogs or if there is a child, I waste time with him/her.
My partner has lots of friends and when they invite us there is always a point where I think I can't go. For fear and bc I don't want them to see how inept I am. I have to make an effort here. Last time I socialized with other people who are not my relatives, was last Christmas. I met with my childhood best friend. We have a great time talking about school and ours lives. When was the last time you took a risk?

(((AzulOscuro))) I couldn't tell you the last time I went to a social outing. I don't even go out to eat with my own family. I used to have a very active social life and I was good at it but I found it exhausting and I had to fake it all the way. I didn't enjoy any of it. Eventually it all became overwhelming and I just let my friends slip away one at a time until I realized I never really had friends at all. Not real ones anyway. So just sitting here sympathizing with you. *SIGH*
