I sat in my truck for 15mn googling how to approach people in public like that's ever helped anyone *facepalm* I'm going back this weekend for a punk show and hopefully he's there, so I can say sorry and continue our conversation

loner

anxiety

socially_awkward_penguin

sober

With anxiety there is always hope, always room for improvement.. always one more trick you haven't figured out yet.

You are over thinking conversation. Most people don't have a clue or anything worth saying. Nothing matters just stop caring and chat

no substitute for behavioral therapy/experience, but this has helped me engage in conv when others initiate

Metal show? That dude won’t be mad that you ran off. Maybe curious and concerned. Keep up the good work and metal on.

Baby steps. When trying to return to socialising, it's a hard process. You got over the largest hurdle, so go out there & celebrate!?

One step at a time, at your own pace : the fact you went to the show already deserves praise. May the best still be yet ahead for you !

Yah it was already a big change in philosophy forcing myself to go out "for no reason" ie no-one to go with, not drinking and saving money..

This. The goal is progress, not perfection. Congrats on going out to the show @op.

Hey, at least you went to the show instead of staying home. Don't worry about it, buddy already doesn't remember you. I mean that 1/2

in a food way. People chat between shows but it's mostly just small talk with someone we know we'll never see again.

You know, knowing people, most likely he's thinking _he_ acted like a weirdo and scared you away. :)
