How to break this vicious circle?

I am having a really hard time finding someone to build a relationship with or even just connecting with people in general. I am well aware of (at least some) my issues but the main culprit is none other than the good ol' low self-esteem and lack of confidence combo. I'm also aware what I could do to improve but this is where the vicious circle comes in - to gain confidence I could do this or that but I am not confident enough to start. How do I get out of the circle? I am starting to think it's too late anyway (life-wise) because at this point I am not sure I am "fixable".

Well, being 35 I decided to go aganist my obesity, and so far i'm down 20 kilos. Not sure what are your problems but a big number of people gets massive improvement and guts when they do some SPORT/lift weights. All that hormonal stuff plays with brain chemistry and You don't Even need to think to make it work. Have any hobbie you love that implies creating something? Videogames are out of table cause altought they are fun, they can be counterproductive. (edited)

I have a question, are we supposed to feel curiosity or excitement from stranger's or online mutual's news? Like how are you supposed to make friends? I absolutely don't care about what person is up to unless it's some specific thing out of my zone of interests

and even then a simple short answer is enough for me. Are we supposed to have a whole conversation out of that? Once I faked excitement for a person having a vacation bc I thought everyone is doing it and call it "socialisation" and got a best friend. But now I think what are actual ways of making... read more

New philosophical view

I'm writing an entirely new philosophical view.. in the sense of say nihilism or the stoics etc. Coining one from scratch! What are some things that should be factored in when doing so?

Humanity is at a crossroads. The world is shifting, and so many are caught in fear, division, and distraction. But remember this: you are not powerless. You are here to rise, to create, to heal, and to elevate.The greatest illusion is that you are small. The greatest truth is that you are limitless

Avoiding the news

The news thrives on fear, often overwhelming us with crises beyond our control. Constant exposure only fuels anxiety without offering solutions. Instead, focus on what you can influenceβ€”your actions, mindset, and well-being. Limit sensationalism and engage with information deliberately, not... read more

Truth about empathy

I often read nonsense about empathy. So here is a quick reminder. Empathy is the ability to plunge inside the other, and feel, read, its pathos, emotions, feeling, sensations, psychism...
