1st...you have to unhide your post to get the advice 😜

This is embarrassing to talk about and I’ve talked to people in life but I figure why not ask the strangers of dx 😂
So I want some advice on how to get along with men better. It’s come to my attention that I’m still awkward and it’s needs to be worked on.
I grew up with an emotionally absent father and my brother was an abusive dick so I didn’t exactly grow up with connecting examples or feeling warm towards any.
All my friends have always been women and I’ve had a few male friends here and there but generally just distant acquaintances.
I can fake a good amount but underneath I feel still shy, scared and uncomfortable around them and I wonder if I will ever be able to calm that?
Thanks

I read it. It's not a big deal to ask the advice you posed.
Does it really bother you though? Sometimes we try to fix things that don't really matter. So, that's why I ask... does it really interfere in your day to day life?
I think when you feel comfortable with someone, you just do. Is it really all men?
Who knows you may be naturally avoiding harm on a instinctual level.

Understood.
However, this right here "It’s come to my attention that I’m still awkward and it’s needs to be worked on. "
Is a total LIE.
