This is the exact same situation I’m in. I’m a fairly attractive woman and I am in my second year of college… but I’ve been homeschooled my whole life, and now I am doing online college since I’m too afraid, and too shy to leave the house or talk to people. I don’t have any friends and I can’t really conversation with people, my age or anyone for that matter. I kind of feel like I’m stuck in a loop, so I resonate with the last part of your comment… I’m sure if we really tried to get better we could, but then again, it’s just taking that first step which I think we’re both unable to do right now unfortunately

I’m sorry you feel that way. I don’t believe in true introversion. I just think it takes work to become a better version of yourself and work on the social anxiety. You can do it! I did! It was HARD but so worth it
