I want nothing more than to have a partner but I'm a gay male introvert with debilitating social anxiety and a lot of emotional baggage. How can I overcome this?

Okay, this certainly sounds like a struggle for you!! It can be really tough for us to accept ourselves for who we are, so congrats on that! Social anxiety can be really tough to deal with, and really can make it hard to meet new people. I've found that meeting people online to start can be alot easier! For the emotional baggage: almost everyone has emotional baggage! Try to be open and honest with them, and don't say everything all at once, you don't want to overwhelm them! Hopefully this is able to help! I understand how tough it can be!
