I want to be her friend. But Im scared :/?

Question

Theres this girl at my work. And shes really cool. We talk all the time and joke around. She hugs me and says she cares about me and loves me. And I really like her too. She even tells me to call her and stuff. But I have a social anxiety disorder. I am so scared to even call her or talk to her.

But I need some more friends so bad. I really want to be her friend and hang out, but Im just so scared.

I guess I need some advice or helpful quotes or something... Cause Im so scared of being rejected or something.

Answer 1

Just get along with her, she needs friends as well..there is not a marriage commitment :)

If you are scared of rejection..well you are looking for it.

Get read of this fear and act positively..Act in the way others would like to act with you, it's that simple :)

Answer 2

Maybe you could write a letter to her explaining everything and leave it on her desk. I'm sure she'd understand and make sure you don't freak out.

I know nothing about anxiety disorders but there must be some kind of treatment available somewhere?

Answer 3

Its time to start taking risks. In order to make new friends, one must be prepared to take a leap of faith. You need to understand that the social anxiety that you have is going to hold you back until you learn to let go of it and jump! Everyday you talk to her, flip a coin at the end of the work day, and see if you should call her or not. Sometimes you have to make your own luck. Who knows, maybe being just friends may become something more.

Good Hunting!
