Was wondering if anyone knew how to even jump over the hurdle of opening up to someone enough to start a relationship. ive been so closed up for so long the idea of letting anyone in seems impossible.

Just open up slowely. Start with little things until you feek that you have a strong enough relationship to let them know the hard stuff.
Thanks for this!

Thats the way to go. Opening up quickly can turn people off.

First few dates should be about having fun, talking about light subjects.
