The story

ive spent so much time noticing and understanding people that im just lost in how to express myself. it didn't really help getting bullied for being quiet and now im incapable of forming friendships:( there is only one person i love being with but she is a distant person and it makes me even more unsure of myself. I hate having to forever suffer with my confidence and social skills because of the ignorance of other people that treated me so horribly. So many times have i imagined scenarios where i wouldn't tolerate what they would say but im not strong enough to do it alone.. . I really wished people were nicer is it that hard ?

with how people are behaving right now, it seems almost impossible to find someone nice. that's when we come to appreciate the others that are actually nice. a little suggestion- Melinda Huez is a self confidence coach. she posts on Instagram and has podcasts where she speaks about topics that we fear to bring up. she presents our low self confidence situations and solutions so beautifully. maybe, you could try watching her videos ?? just a suggestion xx

yeah, i totally feel you on this; it's like some people just don't get it at all!!! i've been there too, always watching, never speaking up. it's so tough... not fair, really. 😟 makes you wonder why folks can't just be nicer?? like how hard can it be? thinking about the past and the words i should've said... man, i get it. but hey, you're not alone in this mess... keep pushing through. back in school, i was in the same boat, always stayed quiet... hard to shake off that feeling, right? keep going—better days can come.

dude seriously you can't keep blaming others for everything?? confidence is a skill you gotta build like any other!!!! social interaction is just part of the human workflow and yes it includes errors and retries; honestly it's all about trial and error so just keep practicing and engaging with peeps. you can't just expect everyone to be nice and sweet but you can control how you respond to it!!! focus on the positives cuz that's what drives results man. just move on and stop hanging on the past that's how you get stuck!!!
