Finally I forced myself to go out more, and I managed to get a few dates in the last months (woohoo), and when it's only one or two dates without follow up it is no problem, but now with one in particular it's getting a bit more interesting (4 dates and counting) and I find it very difficult to manage my feelings without having really close friends to talk to, or a circle of friends to make me safe.
There are two or three people to whom I can talk about my dates, for a limited time at least, still I was thinking if it is very transparent that I am a bit alone in the world and if this makes me look like a "lonely sheep", you know, an easier prey than the ones who live with the herd.
What do you think I could do to avoid giving the impression of being too lonely? and, no, making up imaginary friends doesn't work, I thought of that
in fact I do have several casual meetings with people with whom I don't really have a deep connection, should I call them "friends"?
Or am I just being to picky with regards to whom I should call friends? And do you think I am in more danger than others because I am somehow lonely?
