You Haven’t Met Me
You haven’t met me, and I haven’t met you. Not in the way that matters at least. Not in the ‘I know you and I know your soul, I know you better than you know yourself’ kind of way.
Come to think of it, I haven’t met many people. And the ones that I have met and that met me ran away. Or I didn’t feel comfortable introducing myself and had to find a safe distance. It’s tough to meet people.
I haven’t met you but I really want to. And I feel afraid to meet you or for you to meet me, because if one of us doesn’t actually like what we see in the end, I’m not sure I can handle another one walking out and saying goodbye. I’m tired of goodbyes.
So… for now I haven’t met you. I’ll keep wondering what it’ll be like to meet you, because at this very moment the excitement of what could be sounds warmer than the harsh reality that it could become.

I read a good book in anxiety yesterday. Maybe it will help you. It’s called Helping Your Anxious Teen. It has good counseling for adults and teens. Check your library or amazon . 😊

Hi mate,
Thank you I relate with this post so much and I must commend you for sharing.
Its very hard having to deal with anxiety, especially in social surroundings, the thought of even having to meet new people is daunting if not crippling, and at times there’s nothing you can do to combat or counter “attack” the feeling
Don’t be too hard on yourself, take it a day at a time, and I’m sorry you lose friends/people because of it,
I hope one day you’ll be in a space where you are able to have good coping mechanisms and people who understand and are patient with you
P.S
Hang in there buddy
I think you are an awesome person, I’d be happy to meet you someday
