Hi all,

I'm 29, currently living in Wellington. Moved here from Aus a few months ago after being offered a great job. I knew absolutely no one here, so I thought making this bold/crazy move would force me to tackle my SA head on and hopefully cure it. Well it felt great at first, the excitement of a new job/place/country eclipsed my SA temporarily. But now I'm reverting back to my old people-avoiding patterns. Even though I'm out and about, I spend most weekends alone, it makes me feel safe but I do miss company.

Anyway just wanted to say hey to everyone in NZ. Anyone in Welly who wants meet up for a drink/coffee please gimme a yell, I'd really like to make some friends (outside work) while I'm here.

J

This was a once in a lifetime chance, I knew if I didn't take I would regret it forever. I guess that was a pretty major motivation.

Hello Sn0wman and All

Wellington is not a bad place to land, if not the airport Rolling Eyes

I am a newbie on this site for kiwis. I have had SA for a long time and if anyone wants to chat and reflect that would be great. I'm not sure if there is enough of us here to ask if there is anyone out there that has been there and done that, and well, got to the fuck it stage? I managed to meet a SA person on one occassion who sort of was settled past this point. At the time I just couldn't take it in. I'm not sure I am making sense so will leave this post open...
