but I get stuck on the step between seeing people in an organizational venue, and actually doing something with people who seem interesting--potential friends--outside the confines of that venue...like having lunch together or something. Is that just ridiculous?
I am nodding my head b/c I have the same problem, my d just cannot understand it, she says I am so good with people and well liked and people enjoy my quirky nature etc but still I feel like I am imposing if I think of arranging a coffee date or a week end meal. I guess I feel ike week ends are family times and people are so busy etc. Excuses I guess not to put myself out there. Maybe someone can come up with a plan or pep talk for us both. I personally don't have and D friends except one who is 20 years younger than me and got a young family.
