Not as far along as I thought I was?
Went out tonight planning on having a few drinks at a bar where friends of a friend were DJing. I've met some of these guys before (I'm on good enough terms for one of them to hug me hello, OK, he _was_ very drunk). But I'm sitting at the table with them, and all of a sudden I start feeling really uncomfortable. I literally can't think of a single thing to say to them, and all of a sudden I decide I'd rather not be there. So I get up to go to the toilet, then decide to go for a walk for a while - and before I know it, I'm home. After one drink. At 10pm.
Sigh. I thought I'd been getting a lot better. Looks like I haven't quite cracked it. I don't feel really down or depressed, just like I don't have the energy to deal with social situations, except maybe with people I know well. Double sigh - for how else do I get to know people?
