I just want to say that, although we're all saying a lot of rather harsh things, we are saying them out of concern and love for you.
It's great that your life took a different direction and you came out of your shell. But it doesn't sound like it necessarily went in an entirely healthy direction. This incident doesn't have to mean going back to the "old way" of being, though. If you can be brutally open and honest with yourself, and can look clearly at what happened, you may be able to see what is in the way of you relating to people. I really do wish you well, and hope you can find the help you need to pull yourself out of your shell.
