New...person
Hi....I just wanted to try to finally talk to someone is all. Maybe get some help with my loneliness and sexuality and extreme shyness problems.
I...I have trouble talking and am super awkward, so I am sorry......I just hope to be able to finally talk to someone and not be a bother.....

Don't hide yourself away Elanthe. Ever again. I hope you've found someone to talk to but I know so many beautiful people that have convinced themselves they don't deserve the sunshine that hits them. You do. You always have. It's okay to be yourself and it may not be easy but it's what we need. There will never be another you. It would be an absolute honor to get to know you in any capacity and that's how I feel about all of you. It's not just okay to be you. It's all you can be.
@Elanthe
I am in the same boat as you. I have watched videos and read threads online how to decrease trait anxiety/loneliness/isolation/social skills problems, but it hasn't done much. Do you feel similar?
@Elanthe
Hi am sorry I interrupted you on the other board, I really am new and didn't read the rules before I posted. Saw your message here and wanted to tell you am sorry. I don't think this is the group or board for me, so am as they told me to say "Over or Done". I was just trying to talk with someone anyone really that's all. Am stupid and rush into thing, I should have read the rules. I know to keep my mouth shut in real life, just online I was going to be different
I...its ok.....I really liked our conversation.....until all those people showed up and I got...o...overwhelmed. Am sorry I...I was so awkward.....b...but I really did like talking with....y...you
@Elanthe thank you, I thought it was going great, till I was told I wasn’t doing it right
@Sand6157 am just looking for a friend someone I can talk with about their life and my life, just a friend to say hi and chat a little, I really don’t bother people and will go away if they don’t want to talk with me. I thought that was where I was texting but it wasn’t the right place, saw your ost here any wanted to see if we could still text
I am glad that you gathered the courage to express yourself here. It is very common to feel shy and it is normal. I am sure you will find people here who will support you in a non judgmental way. 😊
@Elanthe sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever be able to get rid of shyness, I just stay inside and a lot and my mom doesn’t care to help me out no matter how many times I’ve asked for help and vocalized living here is very isolating ☹️
Hi Elanthe.
I see that you have already received a lot of supportive comments, which is awesome to see!
However, if you are still searching for someone to talk to, please send me a message. I would be happy to listen to you ❤️
You can talk to me@Elanthe
Hey. Youre so courageous in opening up about your battles. You're not alone.
I dont know how old you are but if youre young, understanding your sexuality and the idea in general is obviously a new territory and it comes with its challenges.
As someone who took a long time to understand this (im 38 years old now), I can empathise.
I dont know what your particular concern is but if you feel comfortable sharing we can start a pen pal thread and I can answer to the best of my ability. Im not a listener so I am unable to offer a private chat.
You can also search online for sex education for knowing the basics.
Unfortunately people dont discuss sexuality enough in spite of the problems nearly everyone faces with it. If discussed in a safe space from the lens of education, it can be truly helpful to everyone. I really hope we lift the taboos and get there one day.
