I like making friends but I have a hard time maintaining friendships. This could be partly due to me having mild phone anxiety. I’m fine if I’m discussing certain details like where and when I’m going to meet someone, but as soon as I need to make conversation I start to get hot and sweaty and lightheaded. Yvonne and I have discussed this and we’ve concluded that this stemmed from having only one phone in a very public place while growing up and parents who like to eavesdrop.
