I wish I could keep a friendship

I am extremely socially awkward & have almost a fear of being the first person to initiate a conversation .

I start overthinking..
Will this person even like me ?
Will they ghost me ?
Am I being too much ?

I feel so vulnerable bc all I want to do is build a village & form solid connections but the thought of losing a friend absolutely terrifies me .

My husband and I are both NC with family and my only 2 friends are on the other side of the world and sometimes it feels like they’re incredibly busy .

I just want someone I can check in on and check in with me too. Someone who can vent but also listen. Someone who will be there . Someone who I can just shoot a text to without judgement. Someone who understands the loneliness that is motherhood & is open to sharing experiences.

I feel this

I feel this on a spiritual level

I’m open to new friends!

I am the exact same way, i over think literally every interaction. Im open to become friends 😊

I used to be the same way, so I completely understand! If you are interested in a long distance friend I’m always looking for more mommy friends! I’m also very outgoing, so I love starting convos and can usually carry one pretty well! 😊

Could have written this

Hii you can message me .. I used to be just like you .. we can be friends

I’m the same way! I’m also bad at having small talk. 🙃

I feel you. Plus sometimes after an interaction with someone, I’m like omg I’m so awkward.

This feels like my story! I have recently discovered that I am so awkward that I don’t know what to say and I people please and my timing so wrong that I become the center of attention

Mee too 😩 it’s so exhausting being the one that carries the conversation on.

I'm weird too. I overshare and then regret it. I just get so excited to talk to people sometimes... I miss talking to people so much😅

I feel exactly the same, message me if you like ❤️

Curious

When connections are made on here who should message first?

1. The person who said yes 1st
2. The 2nd person who made the connection official

I have been wondering this because I personally feel like it should be the person who made the connection official. But maybe I'm wrong.

How do I tell him?

Lately I’ve been questioning my relationship with my boyfriend/baby’s father. It hasn’t just been lately, it’s been practically ever since I’ve been pregnant, it’s like a switch in I’m turned and he became so untrusting of me and kind of controlling in a way.
But after I lost/my purse was stolen and he asked me for some money and I told him the last bit of money I had I spent it on getting a new drivers license, he called me a liar, I can’t do it anymore.
I want to tell him how I feel and see how he reacts but in all seriousness I just want to end things and co parent the best way possible.
How do I tell him how I feel because he isn’t the easiest when it comes to me speaking my mind on things he thinks I’m lying about or what I’m saying isn’t true
