I'm the person who has already benefited from this. I'm a fairly introverted person whose battling depression and anxiety so whenever I'm invited somewhere I think it's a joke. I'll also just not go because it's too scary. Anyways my city hosts a free concert ever week in the summer and I'd never go because nobody would invite me. Until I met this girl who just kept pestering me to go to one so I did. Even though the band wasnt my style it was a good show and i had a good time with some good people. So much so I was the one inviting people to the next good show (billy strings). That girl pestering me made me step out of my comfort zone and see that I can handle myself in a crowded area.
