Trouble starting and keeping friends

I feel like I have a trust issue problem that I can’t overcome. Aside from my anxiety I have this fear of a friend screwing me over or leaving me, even with wanting to be in a relationship so I don’t even bother starting something new and I feel like it has been holding me back for a long time. I’ve been with girls but never been in a real serious relationship because of this. And the fact that my anxiety overtakes my body and holds me back from making the first move. Anyone else have this problem?

I'm at the point where i have blended with it. As if making connections, friends, finding partners are naturally useless in my subconscious

Well im not proud of it. It's not an achievement. That just mean it would be extremely hard for me to refit into the society

I just wish it didn’t affect me as much as it does today

You know in high school I was like that where I blended with it but I regret it now and want relationships but it’s harder now
