If you had a broken arm, you'd go to a doctor, right?  So if you have a broken sense of self, a doctor is still in order.2) Don't look for love right out of the gate.  You're probably going to have to have a few relationships just to get an idea of what you need and want.  Trust me, a lot of guys have settled for "anything" only to end up with a woman who used that need for her own ends (one dude I used to work with let his girlfriend in on his mortgage.  He spent the next five years getting out of debt after she dumped him).  So, concentrate on just dating.  Just like D&D, you wouldn't send a 1st level character after a level 15 challenge, right?  Start out small and casual.3) Work out.  I can not stress the benefits of an exercise program enough.  You will look better.  You will feel better.  You will have a hobby outside of computers and D&D that you can talk to people about.  Focus and you'll be surprised at the results.  A year from now you'll be juggling anvils or running marathons!  I have seen many, many body transformatations that are simply amazing.  In my own case, I went from blobbo,to Charles Atlas, and back to blobbo.  Gotta get that Charles Atlas thing going again.....4) After you have found a therapist you like.  After you've realized you won't solve these problems in a day by bumping into "just anyone".  After you've cranked up your exercise program ... join a co-ed sports team.  I reccomend softball or volleyball.  Don't do it to meet girls.  Do it to meet people.  A lot of these people won't really be your type, but that's OK.  You'll be doing something physical with other people and that always leads to conversations.  A conversation with some shallow tie-wearing guy can always lead to a conversation with a nice young lady, or at least it will give you practice.Good luck man!</blockquote>
