I'm closing my account after being on this site for longer than I can remember right now.
I would like to say thank you to all the columnists that I've met through this site, may your hearts of gold continue to shine through this site.
My reason is simple: I no longer feel I have a use for it anymore. I once was a person who couldn't help other people because of certain difficult situations in my past, but all that has now changed. This site allowed me to be who I really was and for that I'm so grateful for that. It played a very important role in my life and I'll never forget it!
The questions which I answered allowed me to reflect on my life and where it was going, and gave me the opportunity to really appreciate the life that I have, which I'm now living with open arms.
I wish you well for the future,
Triquetra....signing off for the last time.

I was like this a while ago. I wasn't secure about how I looked and talked when I was around other people. It took me a while to get used to who I was and accept the person I was.
It seems to be the same thing for you. You quite a self-conscious person and you're constantly worrying about how you look or how people will react to you. What I did was to step right out of my comfort zone and did things which I thought I would never do before.
I would also recommend a book which is written by Debra Fine called "The Fine Art of Small Talk" which I also used to help me.
I hope this helped,
triquetra
