Hi I'm a bit of an anxious broken romantic introvert but im trying to overcome my anxieties and put myself out there a bit more, lately my loneliness has been bothering me so im really trying to change it and find people to talk to with the hope of it leading to a serious relationship. Ideally id like to talk to and eventually meet people from the UK but im not against the idea of talking to people from any distance. For people who don't or can't get out much like me, meeting new people and having it lead to a relationship in real life seems so difficult.

A bit about me, I had a pretty normal social life up until uni where i developed an m.e. i managed to finish my degree and worked for a while but eventually had to stop working due to it, i do miss working and would like to get back to it one day if im able but I'm primarily focusing on my health and happiness at the moment, i know this will likely put a lot of people off but i want to be honest up front otherwise whats the point. In a way id prefer to meet people in similar situations who don't or can't work as i feel like they may be more understanding of my situation and less judgmental as a result. When covid happened i basically shut myself away from the world and my social skills and anxieties have never really recovered, but im determined to get better and try and get out at least a bit more.

I'm getting older and all my life i wanted children, the fact that i never got to with exs because at the time i thought i was being 'sensible' is starting to really bother me, i need to find people who really want children too or are at least open to the idea if we hit it off.

Happy to exchange pictures. Hopefully ill hear back from someone, maybe you could tell me your age, location and a bit about yourself if you do write.
