30 year old male with gynophobia, i get very anxious and sweaty when interacting with women, i don’t think I am the type of guy women want or that they find attractive. Feeling depressed after attending a close friend’s wedding, i am happy for him but I am unable to picture myself getting married. Never had a relationship in my life and it’s over for me, I am too old now and don’t have any qualities for a partner/husband
Just to remind u… u r not too old man.
I meant old as in the sense of arranged marriage or even having a proper conversation, i am currently seeking therapy for it but I don’t know if it will change anything
Thank you, I am not looking at every woman with the objective of marriage or Dating, even regular conversation is hard and makes me really anxious, my gynophobia has worsened in recent times and I just don’t even see myself having a female friend, i don’t even know how to talk to women
It’s easier to say but it’s hard to implicate in reality, i don’t even know how to talk/interact online nor any online friends
I feel like giving up already, i feel these things are not meant for a weirdo like myself. I don’t fit in with any group or anyone
I think I’ll just bore you with my weird and stupid thoughts, I am not cut out to be friends and I don’t have any friendship qualities
Like what?
I never had much conversation with women so I don’t know what topics to discuss, women generally find me boring and werid type, I tried making friends in college but it never clicked. I used to feel jealous of my friends all having relationships and even close female friends but then I realised I don’t deserve it and it’s not for me
Ok I am willing to give it a try, would u be interested in talking?
you should change your job to someplace where you expose yourself to more women, make friends with women, understand to communicate normally. this is probably the best advice someone can give you.
Currently not in a position to shift jobs
you should join any activity that is more saturated with females. it can be something as simple as dance/yoga class. also you get the added health benefits. :)
