I don't really know where to post this. How do you make friends when your worried about taking to people? I had a bad first marriage and even though its been over for years I still have a hard time talking to people.

Hi, I remember when I felt exactly the same.  Talking just helps.  That's where I started. 


I hope you take the plunge

Making friends is not that difficult. From my experience you just have to be yourself while talking to people who you want to be friends with. Talk about the things that's matters to you and and the things that interests you in that way the friend you'll be making will understand you and you'll be able to spend time with them without being fearful of judgement. And also be honest

I got a similar situation, I've outgrown my college friends so no I don't have much of a life outside work. I was thinking maybe joining a club with a friend

I spend every day sitting at home with my kids. I've spent 21 year as a stay-at-home mom. I don't know how to do anything but take care of them.

For me it's just about walking through fears, putting yourself out there and making connections every where you go. I never go into anything seeking friendships or expecting to find one or some.  That is just a by product. I just enjoy interacting with other and getting to know them. If we become friends awesome if not I'm honored to have crossed paths

What do you like to do? Let’s say golf, let’s say you go golfing and you see a girl. You and this girl already agev soemthing in common already have soemthing ti talk about already ahve soemthing you both love. Conversation will flow easily, the connection will click. Go soemwhere you enjoy so you find a girl with a common denominator, so it makes conversation raiser. Be mindful where you go tho, let’s say you go to the club, if you find a girl there she might not be relationship type. It’s important where you find em is what I’m tryna say. Good luck man, remember Jesus lived your too, pray for that wife, im tellign you it works! ,

Take it slowww don’t rush yourself. I have a great deal of anxiety and I’ve been working through it. People are easy, we all crave connection to some degree. I like to think/talk myself through it when I’m alone. Are you an introvert? Peps talks are a great thing to do at home
