Confidence issues....

    Going unreg for this for obvious reasons...

    Im 31 and in happy relationship(she is the girl i want to spend the rest of my life with) except one issue.
    I have confidence issues and they are causing problems. I overthink everything from making a phone call to asking someone directions. I get paranoid about what people will think of me, or that they might think i smell(i shower twice a day)((pathetic I know)) Meeting new people is a nightmare as i shy away and come across as a bit distant, when thats not what i want at all. In a large group i can never get my point across or will not express my opinion in case others think its stupid.
    I think for years I have been good at hiding this..avoiding phone calls I will always e-mail when possible.
    I stress over everything...and it stops me sleeping probably..which makes me narky.
    She is the first girl to pull me on it and is convinced i need to see someone(councellor or therapist)
    I was convinced this would get better as i got older and more comfortable in my own skin...but its not.

    Sorry if this is all over the place...I'm shaking writing this as I have never put it down before.
