Thank you for being so helpful and caring.

I do not believe I can ever talk to a therapist. I have difficulty expressing my emotions. I am too insecure to even talk to someone I care about because I don’t know if they care about me. And even if they do, I still do not have the courage to initiate a conversation involving my feelings.

I want answers to my questions.
How do you know if someone cares about you?
How do you show you care about someone?
How do you become close to someone?
I have so many questions. I guess most of them are subjective and really do not have a definite answer so I would be searching forever.

Do you think that if I do succeed in having a close friend, will I heal or would I have to talk to someone?
If I do end up having to talk to someone, I’m afraid that they might pity or overall change their impression of me.
