But when he approached and seemed to get flirty, my anxiety skyrocketed to 10x the normal level, I broke out in a sweat, and all I could think about was getting away. Spent the next half hour berating myself and trying to calm down.
No idea how I'm supposed to meet someone this way.
I never used to be this scared, but as I had more and more bad experiences it just got worse. I'm not even sure I'm 100% over the incident with my first boyfriend in middle school, where he felt that things weren't progressing fast enough in the sexual department and that spiking my drink was the answer. If he hadn't broken down crying when I was halfway through my drink and confessed so that I had time to scramble upstairs and demand a ride home, I have no idea what my life would be today...
