I cant act like myself


Question Posted Wednesday January 9 2008, 8:14 am

how come its easier for me to be more outgoing n stuff around people i dont know, or who are shy. and i like outgoing people but sometimes i dont know.. i feel kinda shy around them but i dont want them to think im a really shy person.. its just.. idk. and sometimes like i dont know what to talk about with my friends, when theres nothing really to talk about, like on the bus and stuff. so sometimes im quiet but i really like to talk but with some people idk.. like what are some topics i could use for conversations? and how do i fix my problem? cause it irks me when people think im shy when its just cause like.. i dunno im not that comfortable with them yet. and its not like that with everyone.. it just depends. i wanna be more confident with that and also public speaking.. cause i like doing it but for some reason right before i do it i get nervous and it pisses me off

There is a book by Debra Fine called 'The Fine Art of Small Talk' which helps you to start conversations with other people and makes you feel comfortable around people. On Amazon, it's £5.99 (reduced from £7.99), on Waterstones, it's £6.39 (reduced from £7.99).
I've got this book and trust me, it really helps.

Good luck with the future,
triquetra
