Can I date after 10 years single?

I work from home and I absolutely hate people. I don't trust anyone and do not wish to talk to anyone unless I have to..there are people I like at work but it ends there..I have no desire to speak to them afterwards.
I'm quite a negative person yet strangely someone at work has taken a shine to me..I actually like them as well but cant bring myself to be happy.

I've been hurt so many times throughout the years and cant bare to allow myself to take a chance..I'm basically my own cock blocker...

we have swapped numbers and talk a lot but no matter what I say to try put him off its not working..every negative comment I hit out with is met with a very understanding and positive outlook...

thankfully we live so far away from each other that meeting up isn't an immediate option but i'm hoping it comes to nothing so i can tell myself i knew it wouldn't work anyway..but my goodness i really like this person.

Anyone else dated after being single for such a long time?

Yes of course you can. However, I think getting out a bit more socially and learning to trust people again is just as important. I'm not saying you go from zero to 100 within a few days but slowly build up doing a bit more out of the house with other people. It's not healthy to have such little trust in people.
