Find one thing that you are good at and practice, practice, practice...you will get better and better and it will raise your confidence. [ Nallie's advice column | Ask Nallie A Question ]
vintagerose answered Tuesday May 16 2006, 8:21 pm: hey im struggling with thte same thign too right now. heres what ive been doing recentally which workes and also makes me very happy and more confident with myself:
1)know you are beautiful, every guy wants you, but the reason y thye r not tlaking to you is because you r too intimidating, but u shoudl know if you aproach them they will be more than pleased to talk to you. alth there is a handful of just plain stupid guys who will be asses to you who r probably gay. so love yourself first, then people will love you too
2) in a few years no one will remember that you were the girl who tried to say hi to that hot guy in lunch adn while doing to tripped over a seat and spilt her lunch all over the cafeteria (and that woudl be the worst thign that can happen to you if you try to say hi to someone). making friends is key, even if its just oneline (which i find easier to do) because friends make u feel great about yourself.
3) surround yourself with fun outgoing happy people because they will make you feel like you are just as worthey as they are.
4) picture all thoes outgoing happy girls who get all the guys, pretend you them, i know it souinds crazy and it might sound liek you r trying to be someone your not, but it works because you are pushing yuourself to be more outgoing so you attract more guys who boost your self esteem
5)act in a whim. just do things that come to mind. act on instinct, through yourself out there on the limb adn hope it works
AskWhatever answered Tuesday May 16 2006, 6:26 pm: I totally understand how you feel. Its just in your mind. When you are feelin down just go do something fun with friends. Think positive and do whatever makes you feel like you look great before you go out. If you FEEL great, then you LOOK great. Not all guys are attracted just to looks. They like certain things, like...CONFIDENCE. its no big deal,just be positive and when you go places, think that every eye is on you. Dont be shy either, do a couple extra things to boost your confidence. Get over some fears maybe, like asking a guy if he wants to hang out sometime or go see a movie, just be casual about it, dont be nervous, and dont be shy. Have fun with everything you do. Just begin to enjoy life and stay away from things that bore you or make you unhappy and begin to find what you are interested in.
iiloveyou answered Tuesday May 16 2006, 5:50 pm: First you have to list all the positive assets about yourself. Then read them over and repeat "I am beautiful." or "I am fabulous." Pick a line that you can relate to and repeat them over and over in your head and smile. Don't think about anything negative because that only lowers your self esteem. When you're around people think about your positive line and smile and just concentrate on your positive aspects. Soon you'll feel so much better about yourself, and others will start to notice it too. Just remember to be confident in whatever you do, because confindence is sexy.
