when i'm with a group of people, i get really shy and i never know what to say. when i'm around just a few people i'm really loud & outgoing. like tonight, after my soccer game we went out to dinner with the team. everyone was laughing and screaming, but i was really shy and not "hyper" as they called it. and those kids are my friends so it's not because i didnt know them. i tried speaking up and being outgoing, but the more i tried to like fit in, the shyer i got. it was so weird. but then again, in school the teachers all yell at me because i never shut up. how come i'm shy around certain people but REALLY loud others? oh, and don't say i don't feel comfortable around them because i do. and how do i step out of my shy zone and become outgoing (to the people i'm shy with.) what are some things to bring up in a conversation and stuff? i really dount know why im like this.

Dear confused,
I also have been there so you are not the only one who went through this. I too feel more hyper and comfortable around certain people but when I'm with other people I feel awkward. This has happened to me for a long time, but then I didn't care anymore. When I started loosiing up and not caring, I fitted in more. And I think that goes for any situation like yours. Don't try to fit in so much. Just relax. And after a long time, if you still don't feel comfortable with them, that means that they aren't really good friends. But then again, feeling comfortable with other people takes time. So just give it some time and if things are still the same after a couple of months, then it's time to move on with other friends.
sign,
Tina
