Today has been an o.k. day for me today, but I have something that is really bothering me and I'd love to have some input on it. I have prayed for years that The Lord would send someone into my life to love me and for me to love and to be my husband. I have never been married and have no children. I have met a wonderful man in Moscow, Russia. We have talked for nearly a year now, and we are planning to meet soon. He knows a little bit about my anxiety problem, but I am so afraid that if and when we meet, what if I have a panic attack?! What if he thinks I'm weird, or crazy?! What if I'm just so anxious that we don't have a good time? I am so worried about meeting him, that I have thought about just telling him we cannot talk anymore. My friends and family are more concerned about whether or not this man is honest, trustworthy, and has good intentions. My biggest worry is about myself. What should I do?
