Would you date someone who suffers from social anxiety? (Page 2)

[Bluethinker456]

As I have it, then yes, because we'd understand each other. But if her social anxiety is too much, then we wouldn't be able to communicate effectively, so it would not work.

[Kitty46]

I have social anxiety, I also have Aspergers, it can be very bad.

[magiusX26]

yes. though with my level of issues, no idea how we will get started.

[AdithyaR]

I don't think it'd be an issue. I'm not a very social person to begin with so I guess it's perfect.

[winterfox10]

I wouldn't be able to do that, no. I've already tried

[Clarke498]

Hell yeah. We could stay home and chill the entire life.

[haggardfuk00]

Sure because i can empathize. I feel the same most the time. Just not strong enough to affect my life to much

[gabrial97]

I don't know, people really don't know their dating someone with anxiety untill they alteast dated for a month or so..

[gabrial97]

And after that no backing up..

[Adrenaline_Junkie]

Not likely
Meanwhile 80% of girls have anxieties and other mental issues. Honestly I'm not a psychologist to deal with such people.

[Whodarestoask]

I absolutly would and with my current girlfriend i was actually able to get her out of that way as i am typically around a lot of people she had gotten used to it for the most part

[Rellis1902]

Of course, I suppose one advantage of this is they appreciate you going to the shop for them or just simply standing at the side of them its not a huge gesture but they notice and appreciate it

[Anonymous]

My boyfriend broke up with me because of my anxiety 🙃

[Nic1330]

Sure, Love doesn't care if the other person is perfect but compensates for whatever is lacking

[Juxtapose]

If she made me happy, sure. I'd try to build her confidence though.

[hellacray]

No and after reading the definition. Doesn't everybody suffer from social anxiety at some point?

Calling it an illness and mental disorder to me just seems odd.

Almost like giving people an excuse for being awkward.

[anniisa]

Social anxiety is when it has an effect on your day to day life

[hellacray]

Does it affect people the rest of their life?

[anniisa]

It can do. It is treatable but you have to be willing to face your fears.

Everyone suffers from it from time to time, that's true. But most of the time they're referring to social anxiety disorder. That's when you don't feel comfortable eating in public, answering phone calls, or just simply walking out in fear of being judged by the rest of the world.

[hellacray]

Like hermits?

[Dchrls78104]

Yeah... I could live with some, though not necessarily all, of its symptoms.

[Shiningtempest]

@DanaeAdam5 I wouldn't date someone who suffers from social anxiety because it goes against my principle.

[Anonymous]

I have social anxiety myself so dating someone just like me would make us two walking bombs ready to explode at any given moment

[Anonymous]

I personally suffer from social anxiety and have a boyfriend.
I drink a bit every time before I meet him.

[wellendowedwonder]

I would have said no a long time ago! Now I'm the one LOL

[Goodathalo]

I might. It depends on the situation that it puts me and them in.

[OpenNudist]

To be perfectly honest Yes I Would to help them come out of their Proverbial Shell

[shortster]

I feel like I'm between shyness and social anxiety. Perhaps I am something else.

[GreenGold1992]

Maybe, I suffer from a degree of social anxiety, so at least we'd have something in common.

[msc545]

Sure - I know exactly how to manage that problem and help with it.

[simplelikeme]

I probably would not. But I guess it would have to depend on the severity

[Noone86coffe]

Sure defenetly I have suffered from it since young. But when you start working and socializing it diminishes with time

[adamKing]

I had it well not completely recovered but yeah it wouldn't bother me

[michael1469]

So me
... i am only good in small groups... giggdy giggidy

[Gabriella_95]

Possibly if they manage and if their getting help for it.

[lolcraft]

For once I'd like a relationship where one of the participants didn't.

[AkshiJanjua]

i have social anxiety so yes i know how it feels like and understand them much more than others

[Juggernautpunch]

I have and would again if I wasn't married. It's not easy tho. You need patience

[Oric50]

Yes it can be redirected toward better perspectives

[EstevanMadrid898]

Yeah why not, everyone suffers from some sort of anxiety

[shawntc]

That's a tough one when you love somebody and it's really f***** up when I didn't think you had anxiety until you hung around somebody to do have anxiety can I just find me a chill chick that likes to get naked relax not sweat the small s***

[WolfTheReaper_17]

Yes I would cuz u can help them with it and be there when they need it

[jg341]

I have before it's difficult but it's not to bad if she's a good person

[Anonymous]

I would believe and assume that women are more reluctant than men are, because nobody cares about a woman's confidence, that's not how men are attracted to women

[Anonymous]

I suffer from it and yes I would. He would at least understand me.

[ClosetHoe]

Depends on the severity but generally yes I would

[MartinGoulet]

Yes, because I know what it's like and it doesn't mean she is not pretty.

[Katebfun]

NOPE. I already have and it was not fun.

[JosyJosy]

Sure, can't be that bad

[BlckGrl]

You all are saying yes until the mental breakdown

[Shark_61695]

As long as we can hide from the world together.

[es20490446e]

Nervousness isn't social anxiety.

[Porcelaine]

It is if you get nervous in socializing situations

[Anonymous]

This list should include autism.

[Anonymous]

I have social anxiety so how can I judge 🤷🏼‍♀️

[martinxdenver]

Yeah. If she's a good person

[Iron_Man]

That was my last girlfriend

[moonpie89]

I would prefer not to

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Yes. Independent variable added

[brAdfitz2020]

Yes becuz I did 20 in federal prison

[mrgspoter]

I would, I'm this way.

[StarryCrossing]

Yup, I have it.

[JamesRandiDebates]

I guess it would depend on the severity.

[NewZion]

If she were hot and she was into me, sure.

[hamzaafzal]

Sure.. I'll definitely do

[fxckboy89]

Yes, more time at home alone means more sex

[stupidgrls]

One tracked mind 😅
