As someone with extreme social anxiety I have trouble meeting new people, even over text or call. I'm in a long distance relationship and I never met his family or friends. He always wants me to talk to them but understands that I can't, I always feel like they won't like me or judge me. Imo it just feels like I'm ruining our relationship

Hey there, I can see you’re struggling with this, but you’re doing great, okay? It’s good your boyfriend is respecting your wishes. I understand some of the anxiety you’re feeling, and you’re really strong okay? Any part of a relationship can be sparked with communication, if you’re struggling try talking about it with him alone. Explain how you feel, how even though it would be lovely to meet them you are struggling with anxiety, talk to him about how you feel it’s hurting your relationship and the two of you can build a path to make things feel better. You got this <3
