Me and my friends made bucket lists for this year at college. I am 19 and inexperienced and I wanted to start on it soon. I put that I wanted to get my first kiss on there. I was very excited until later that day. One of my friends says that she doesn’t think I’ll be able to start on the list this year. I asked why and she says because I should see a therapist or something first. To explain. Last year I decided to try abd and finally get with one of the guys I’ve practically been in love with my whole life. I sought out help hoping they could help me do it. I was nervous and she kept taking my phone to text things that I wasn’t ready to send and she says I was acting crazy. Fast forward to now. I can acknowledge that I may have anxiety but I don’t see why should stop me from trying something new. It was kind of discouraging that she said that. Anxiety hasn’t stopped me from doing things I wanted unless I was super nervous about it. we n when I tried to explain why it was possible she told me that she didn’t want to talk about it anymore and just started looking up therapist sites. It felt like she was picking or something. She says she never talked to a guy first and thought that it was desperate to do so. To which I disagreed and I feel kind of discouraged. I just wanted to get my first kiss I didn’t think it would be that deep. She even went as far as to say that I laugh and giggle too much and I act slow. I don't know it just makes me feel like If this was how she saw me what about the rest of the world? Do they think I’m crazy or slow too? I always laugh because I’m just goofy I thought that was apart of my personality. I was waiting for someone I wanted to approach me first so I could continue with the list but I’ve been waiting for 19 years. It’s time to act. It’s not something I’m rushing but something I really want to do and was excited about and it feels like she took that excitement from me. But is she right? Should I listen to her?
Is it possible to date with anxiety? (undiagnosed)?
