>messages me all the time and always wants to hang out
>I want to reciprocate the feeling and be with her but I'm too scared my 'inaccessibility' and lack of need for interaction will make her feel neglected and hurt
I felt so comfortable with my loneliness all those years and now I'm on a completely alien territory and have no idea how to handle this shit
