We live in a age, where communication
is taken for granted i think.

we have so many ways, and methods to communicate
with people around us, and around the world.

we have the internet, news groups, email
instant messengers, irc, websites.
phones, two way radio, even simple
things like, magazines and newspapers.

but in this day an age, there are so many of us
that feel like where worlds apart, than
any time of age.

I remember getting phone numbers from women
where i was suppose to call them the next day or so.
sometimes it took two weeks.

(basicly nothing ever came out of it, they wern't impressed)

It's not that i didn't want to.
it was more, deep down inside i wanted to
to the point where id spend hours paceing the floor.
then eventually not doing it.

If i was looking for a part for my vehical
and had to call around, i could do that.
but things like this, is a real problem for me.

sometimes meet people online localy.
nice attractive women, but time comes to meet them,
it never happens.

alot of good intentions,
i don't know why i do that..

Hi ManWithNOName,
You souldn't become obsessed about the time you've already wasted. Just try not to waste any more. 'If you cry for not having seen the sun, your tears won't let you see the stars'.
Good luck,
Have

it's hard not to become resigned to these feelings when faced with the time capsule of your life upon which to reflect, when thinking and thoughts are pretty much your only companions.
and when a major part of social anxiety is the negative self-thinking and the low self-esteem that provides ample fuel for such uncomplimentary self-talk.
and the depression.
and the 'what if?s'.
and the looking back and inability to look forward or out from the pit in which you exist.
a million books on a bookshelf of inspirational thoughts and stories - all of which apply to others. and then you despise yourself more for feeling 'sorry' for your lot when others have it so much worse and when others heroically and courageously survive through things that make your own seem so insignificant and so small.

do not resign yourself to this if you still have time to escape.
lest it becomes impossible to eventually.
