Thank you Geoff for your kind, honest and proactive reply /concern. I Appreciate it.
I honestly haven’t figured out if it’s them or me. I do understand that there are those who secretly fight their own battles.
I too am very afraid of putting a foot wrong should people then avoid me. Perhaps I project more than I realise?
What I fail to comprehend after all these years of trying to better myself, that after social events, I leave thinking that it went well.
That most of the time I am listening and talking basically about them. I am very private, but I do on occasion show my vulnerability.
Then when the goodbyes and let’s catch-up are said and done, no one contacts me.
I try hard not to project my depression or anxiety, (could be fooling myself and no one else on this one!( but I have the biggest ? over my head as to Why people would contact others in my social group, of 5!! but not me?
I am tired, sluggish and every time at my age, I have to fight the age discrimination barrier or it’s a pure dead end for my efforts.
Geoff I just don’t know, however I do understand where you’re coming from, as I too tread with care for fear of offending or scaring off.
Take care
S
