I don't feel I know. Surely you need to know which direction to go in, in order to go somewhere with your life, to be happy? My friend said 'if I didn't have goals in life, I'd go mad'

I don't want any of those things.

I want my body to stop making me feel sick in social situations.

A decent female best friend who could challenge me (in terms of pushing my limits, socially or in general) would be nice though. Not gonna happen.

Yeah it's tiring. I feel like I'm winning with my brain, but my body won't listen.

just a big mac and fries for me please.

Actually, in seriousness, I guess the answers would be just for normality. It's the abnormality of being distant, and being single that I suppose is distressing.

I can't make up my mind or make decisions.

There are too many negatives and I'm afraid to go with anything in case I feck up, made the wrong choice, get rejected

Stardog has made a good point though - if you don't have a goal to aim for then you can only be wandering aimlessly through life.

I'm not talking about crazy epic aims like climbing Everest or winning an Oscar, I mean more down to earth things like: aim to get a part time voluntary job in 6 months and see how it goes.

I always have goals in sight and if I didn't, like Stardog's friend, I would end up very very messed up, despressed, and just lost.

You say there are too many negatives but you're living a life you dislike as well, which is a big fat negative too. Also, when you try to change, or try something new, I appreciate you are nervous about things going wrong but things can and do go right, esp. if you put in the time and effort to make things work.

Regardless, things go right AND wrong for everyone and accepting failures, coping with them, being able to move on and learn from them rather than taking them personally, these are the traits of people who get on in life and get what they want.

Is it really so scary to change when the position you're in now is not appealing? I can't understand that at all.

Safe from more failures, arseholes, relentless piss takers and a boatload of other things.

I'm mentally drained yes, and also physically drained by all the damn PTSD like symptoms I suffer from.

Don't get your poll choices. What's the difference between?

A GF only and
A GF and no friend(s)

You're also devoid of all the successes, decent kind people, relentlessly warm-hearted individuals and a boatload of other things.

option 1 implies that you already have friends

option 2 means that you want a relationship, but dont really like socialising outside of it?

Stop being such a smarty pants.

Maybe you're right, but even when I was at my most normalist (is that a word?) I never experienced much of the above.
