Hi, I’m 24F and I’m looking for honest advice. I have a really strong fear of men.A big part of it comes from lack of experience- I went to an all-girls school, so I didn’t grow up interacting with guys When I tried to change that, I had some bad experiences online on omegle Most of the interactions I had were very sexual straight away, and it made me feel uncomfortable and unsafe. Because of that, I’ve developed this belief that: men are unpredictable friendships can suddenly turn sexual I’m “safer” keeping my distance I know this probably isn’t true for everyone, but it’s how my brain reacts now. The problem is, I don’t want to live like this. I know men are half the population, and I’ll need to be able to interact normally in work and everyday life. It’s gotten so bad that even when a guy speaks to me in a platonic way I start looking at them as if they are danger. So I wanted to ask is this fear understandable, or am I overgeneralising from bad experiences? How would you be comfortable around men if u were in my shoes? submitted by /u/agileopportunity54
