Hey so my friends girlfriend, whom i had just met a few days ago but is someone im already very comfortable with, is tying to introduce me to a girl who she believes will fit well with me; another mutual friend concours. But i dont know if im in a place in my head to be in a relationship, but then again, i want someone with whom i can just be with, just have someone that i can share my love with, share my deepest joys and my deepest pains. I know that relationships dont start like bam, and i prefer it that way, i want something well developed. Im very split and could use help

I'm not going to claim I'm good with this stuff, because I've never been in a relationship, but I know a thing or two about human nature. I suggest you give it a shot, try starting out slowly and just get to know her, see how much you really are alike, and see if it will work out. But if there is something that you think will come back to bite you later, anything, no matter how little, something that might ruin it and just break your heart, stop it before it's too late.

Short answer: Give it a go, and don't go too far until you know her well enough

What Veneficus de Sapiens said is solid. And I wouldn't hold any info back either, especially if you want the relationship to last. Be truthful and communicate. If you do that, and you guys really do click, them I'd say you'll last for a while. If you think your mental state is too messed up right now, maybe that's exactly what you need, someone to share and help.

If you're going to meet her, just be yourself and try to get to know her a little bit. If you feel that you are possibly compatible, then you could see her again/hangout with her and continue to get to know her. It takes time to form a good relationship, but you have to start somewhere :) I say you should give it a shot and just be you. If it doesn't work out, at least you tried. I would rather be the guy who tried and did not succeed than the guy who didn't try and always wishes he had.

I see no issue with this. Go ahead, and just be yourself. If it works out, congrats, if it doesn't - hay, ho, life goes on, and you have gained some experience in the strange world of dating.
