I’m terrified of how unpredictable and chaotic life can be. I’m too anxious to try to form friendships and romantic relationships because I don’t understand how to maintain them and ensure that they work. I don’t know if I’m willing to take the involved risks, but I also hate being alone. I wish that life came with some sort of guidebook or manual, or that there was some sort of risk analysis for different choices.

If you don't jump you will never fly.

But if you had a life of certainty, you might be complaining of lack of freedom!

Since you seem troubled by anxiety, I suggest you get some treatment for that. You might not be able to prevent all anxiety, but there are some pretty good techniques for dealing with it so it doesn't rule you.

I am also like that. I hate change and have trouble adapting to it. And relationships change all the time. Everyone and everything is so fast paced i get tired.
