Dear Carmela,
You're Not Ready
It sounds as if your instincts are telling you that you aren't
ready for a relationship. This is nothing to worry about. REALLY.
In fact, it is great that you have such good instincts!
While it may worry you that you don't act or seem to feel the same
way that some of your friends do, it is much better to act on your
gut instincts, even if they are telling you to avoid a relationship.
Practice Developing Other Relationships
However, eventually you will be emotionally ready for a relationship.
To make sure that when the time comes you aren't swept up in waves
of panic, begin practicing to develop good relationships NOW that
aren't so intimidating.
Think about what it means to have a good relationship with friends,
family, colleagues, etc. Practice making relationships better.
When You're Ready
When you are ready for a boyfriend, you will be accomplished at
being part of a relationship! You'll know that the best relationships
DO make you vulnerable, but also provide an incredible amount of
support, love, and even excitement.
I hope this helps you not worry. Listen to your instincts and practice
developing relationships you'll be just fine.
