How do you try to form a relationship or meet someone?

I have tried very hard but I can never get it to work out. It's very difficult for someone like me to form a relationship

I have tried and failed. At my age I've basically given up.

I've found hobbies like dancing are a good way to meet others and have it be about more than your MI.

I have no idea where to even start. I was with my husband for nine years, since I was 19. He knew about my problems before we started dating. I've never dated in the traditional sense. I wouldn't even know how to go about it. I'm only 29 but I foresee being alone the rest of my life. Who wants to take on a mess like me?

Ditto. Men keep ending relationships with me. Don't really even know why.

Just let them come to you. You meet those who mesh best when doing yourself - not even thinking about it

It's hard to get out and meet people when you have social anxiety, let alone find a relationship.
