Can't connect to people I'm interested in/like
Relationship Stress / by Somiaa
Last post
 August 17th, 2019
...See more I've experienced social trauma at a young age and have never really spread my social wings due to anxiety and low self-esteem. I've been working on my social anxiety and self-esteem daily, but I'm at a roadblock were I don't feel like I'm connecting to people when I socialize with them. I'm completely emotionally blocked off even though I'm interested in the person and they also express interest in getting to know me. when I talk to people I don't feel like I'm creating a connection with them even on a surface level. I don't know what steps I need to take to feel closer to people I'm interested in forming a relationship with. (Whatever form that takes: acquaintance, friendship, familial, romantic, etc.)
