Question Posted Wednesday December 6 2006, 8:07 pm
Theres this guy i like and hes pretty much like a jock cause he does lacrosse and football. and i do soccer, bball, dance, and I wanna try out lacrosse in the spring. hes in like most of my classes in my middle school, and i fell for him right when i met him.. cause of his looks, but hes also funny and nice, too. (although hes not the brightest crayon in the box heh) ANYWAY, im not the world's best flirter, especially with guys i like alot, cause then i feel awkward around them and such. but i dont mind in gym getting competitive, like we played this game called "steal the rings" and you gotta capture the person's flag on their belt so they dont steal your ring. and i beat him sometimes and hes always smiling when i do it. also the other guys, like they know im good at the game but like is it attractive? or does it kinda repel people. im not like "SOOO" aggressive, but im pretty good at the game and dont just stand there like some girls doo. hes kinda popular and im not popular, but not a loser either.
ppl kno me cause im smart, talented at stuff, funny, and nice. but sometimes it takes a bit to get to know me, since at first i may seem shy but if i get comfortable around you i can be totally more outgoing and fun to be around. arg, so im basically shy in most places except gym cause i dunno.. i guess i feel kinda selfconcious, well i mean i like myself, but it feels weird when ppl are like staring at you! so i always get some feeling which makes me feel weird like that sometimes, though i guess its just nervousness for no reason when im feeling kinda uncomfortable. but this kinda happens everyday and every night i tell myself that i will change and such but its always the same the next day! i mean it changes a lil.. but like.. yeah. how do i become more outgoing and stuff.. and basically make more friends in general? and how do i be myself.. like everyone says that as the answers to questions like this (sorry this is not all on the topic!) and its like hard..
Ahh! sorry this is mucho long!
Thanks 4 replying!

And my crush was in my gym class, so of course I was a little distracted haha But I still played the game. A lot of guys think it is a turn-off that the girl is competitive. But I know a lot of guys that like the fact that the girl will actually 'put up a fight' and is competitive. You can't change who you are, so if you try to become less competitive, you won't have any fun. Now, you said you wanted to be more outgoing.. To do that, go out more with friends. Try new things. Be open to changes. With you trying new things, you'll meet new people and eventually will make new friends. And the easiest answer to say is to be yourself. Still be competitive and athletic. Don't loose that. You like to have fun, right? Do what you do to have fun. If you need anything else, let me know. I will be happy to help you out!
