me too feel the same way.

I'm the same way - I see my fiancee with his friends *sigh* I just want to have friends too. But I'm too shy also and I really haven't tried recently to make friends.

hey, lonely friday night here and every night...

good friends are hard to find, pple to go play pool with, shoot baskets, whatever, like guys do, well thats a different level of friendship. so dont feel bad, as far as how far his pals would go for him if things got bad, he may end up saying ive got no one too, when the chips are down that is.

is it easier for you if you find a person with a like interest? maybe less pressure? certainly difficult with anxiety and agoraphobia issues. ive had plenty of that, so i can relate. very hard to feel in the right frame of mind to be social. for me i found the more anxiety attacks i had when i was out, the more agoraphobic i became. im some better now, but i stil never knowif the anxiety will overwhelm me. i was in the walmart the other day, anxious from the day and then i just got to a point where i said, i gotta get out of here. its very tough.

has anything helped these problems? meds, therapy, meditation, etc? does you husband understand your problems and provide encouragement and support? i hope so, i think that can help too.

online friends arent the same thing, but still can fill a whole in ones social interactions. focus on that for now, and at trying to keeping working to beat some of these things that are controling your life. in some ways anxiety and what it can do is worse than depression as it can create so many physical problems. have you ever had a hormone panel done? if not you should, prolonged severe stress and anxiety can create adrenal fatigue. i have that from all the yrs of stress and pple leaving their foot prints on my back.. good luck to ya.
