I've been in a girls school all my life and am now in Uni and I find myself very 'left out' even when I'm in a big group of friends (boys and girls) hanging out. I noticed that this happens because I mostly have nothing much to say and that scares the hell out of me. It makes me feel so stupid at times. With girls, especially, those I know and can relate to, I dont have trouble, am usually the clown of the group but I've got nothing to say to guys at all.
And best of all, I've this long crush that has become more than a crush now and when he comes around I go completely speechless. And he's a quirt type too, so that doesn't help at all, as I've to be the one who initiates the conversation. So, basically when we meet by chance, we say hi...say a few sentences and then it's a 'who runs off first challenge'. Please help.
What can I talk about? I know I'm already in Uni and this sounds very childish but that's the sad truth. =) HELP!
