[QUOTE]Originally posted by eray01: [QB] oh I know exactly what you mean!! I am 20 also and when I was younger I would talk to anyone but after about age 6 or 7, I became extremely shy! I hate it also. I didnt have a whole lot of friends in high school. I mean everyone knew me but a lot of people thought that I was stuck up but I was really just shy. It was a big problem for me. I was shy in front of my parents even! But one thing that helped me a little was in 9th grade I had a best friend who was my opisite.. she was loud and proud. Her name is Brooke. She really helped me to lighten up..she talked me into trying out for cheerleading and getting more involved instead of just going home after school and sittin in my room alone. She talked me into singing solos in chior and such. After that I did lighten up a little more but was still pretty shy. Then me and Brooke stopped talking for some stupid reason( I really dont remember why) Anyway, I once again was alone and shy and stopped doing cheerleading and all that. But now that im older and have a boyfriend and am on my own I am so not shy anymore.. I dont know its weird... I kinda felt like my dad held me back alot cuz he was very strict and I was scared to even ask to do things. I also realized that life is short and if your not happy then whats the point. You gotta stick up for yourself and share your opinions with others. And you CANT worry about what other people think!! That was prolly my biggest problem! Just live life to the fullest and if someone doesnt approve or like what yu have to say then find someone who does care!! good luck! [/QB][/QUOTE]
