I recently moved to the states to try and start anew. i got a new place and a job. I met a girl at work she's constantly flirting and acting extremely giddy around me. I can't for some reason bring myself to make anything happen. I want to but I am terrified something could happen and ill end up alone and hurt. help!

 I'm glad things are looking up in your life. A new place, a new job, a new love interest...the sun is still shining on you. You don't have to rush into anything; just take each day as it comes and enjoy being with the girl, no pressure. Maybe one day you can talk to her and tell her about your past. Maybe something will happen with her, but maybe it won't. Give yourself some more time to heal and when the right time comes, you'll know.
You might also want to check if there are any sliding-scale mental health centers that you can attend for a reduced price.
Good luck.

 I'm not sure what has happend in your past but my advice would be to go with it. Sometimes the best medicine is new love. Just go with the flow and if things start to get serious with you and this girl then go for it! Don't be afraid to get hurt again. If you live your life in fear of getting hurt you will never find love. With great risks come great rewards! You never know she could make you ten times happier than the previous girl in your life.. give it a chance and take things slow withthis new girl. The best way to protect yourself is to take things slowly, don't rush into them...Don't be afraid, life is short live it to its fullest!! good luck!
