Social anxiety

I really want new friends bc the only friend I have is a childhood friend. Her lifestyle is very different so it’s hard to relate to her now. If I try to meet up with women with the same interests and life styles, my social anxiety takes over. I would be like this in my head, “do they like me? Am I talking too much? Oh god I’m talking too much. Let’s talk less. Omg now I probably sound cold from not talking as much. What are we going to talk about after this conversation is over??? Why is the quiet time in between conversations so awkward??” I just want to hide lol. But what’s funny is that I can totally be friends and relax around people over the internet, like this app!

I don’t know how to get over social anxiety. 🙈

My fiancé is trying to hook me up with his best friend’s wife so we can have girl time. I’ve met her before and she’s super funny, my age, and I have a gift card to our fav restaurant but I’m still nervous asking her to hang out. Helppppppp 😭
