My friend *Agnes and I have never really been close, but I know most of the things that go on in her life. She has a myspace and has tons of people on there that she goes to shows with and hangs out with. I want to be as outgoing as her, but I don't want to do it through myspace. I mean it's harder for me because I am afraid of being rejected. I'm not as pretty or skinny as her and I am not"scene" so people don't make it a point to talk to me. How do I get up the courage to talk to people, mainly boys, and what do I say?

Beloved_x_Eyes answered Sunday November 27 2005, 6:01 pm: You dont have to be scene to get people to like you! Trust me. Im not scene and I have friends. The reason why people LIKE her & a lot of scene people is because they do their own thing and to be flat out honest - theyre not scared to be themselves and they dress how they feel. And if people dont like them, they dont really care. Thats a good personality to have as long as it doesnt go TOO far & the person ends up snotty or isolates themselves from everyone that isnt EXACTLY like them. Just realize, if you go up and talk to people, theyre probably not going to reject you. Why would they? Just be confident and nice and yourself! Thats really all GOOD people - who you should care about liking you - want. [ Beloved_x_Eyes's advice column | Ask Beloved_x_Eyes A Question ]

I mean some people for whatever reason just draw boys to them with a lot of ease. There is no 'getting up the courage'...just believe in yourself. Believe that you can flaunt your better attributes because there's really nothing she holds over you.
