i feel awkward all the times


Question Posted Tuesday April 29 2008, 10:11 pm

this is a weird question haha. i'm 14/f and i'm taller and a little bigger (not fat) than most of my friends. Whenever i hang out with people, i feel so awkward and i feel like i don't look girly. I feel very manly and beastly compared to other girls. I'm also not really good at talking to people haha i know i'm a mess :]

what can i do to feel less awkward all the time?

Aw, don't feel like you're a 'mess.' I know everyone goes through that stage.. but not everyone has to just deal with it. Make yourself feel good.. do things for yourself like getting your eyebrows waxed, getting your hair done, and wearing cute AND comfortable outfits. Stick to cute flats instead of heels so you don't feel so tall, and wear clothes that work with your figure

Doing little things to make yourself feel good will definitely help.. you'll feel better about yourself :) As for not being too good at talking to people, I feel the same way most of the time. I suffer from anxiety but I feel I'm getting better at socializing. I realized that even though I feel people are secretly judging me, I had to realize that it's just my mind. Being yourself and just acting friendly will let other people be nice back. The only way to get better at talking to people... is by talking to people! :] It seems scary at times to step out of your comfort zone but it's definitely worth it.

Hope I helped you :] If you have anymore questions just ask away in my inbox.

I think that everyone goes through a stage in life where they compare themselves to other people, but thing is that no one looks the same. You are your own person and you need to accept that you are not going to be like your friends. Your body is made the way it is supposed, and their body is the way its supposed to be. Your friends most likely have something about them they dislike, butyou might not be able to identify because they have accepted the fact that it is not going change. Just remember that no one can change you, if you are happy being who you are then just be that person. Show the world the you are in it and you are going to make a difference somehow. Don't be afraid of showing off what you have, show confidence in yourself and give yourself compliments everyday on the things you do or have that you are proud of because no one else has that and you are an indiviual who is not afriad of being a little different. Just be yourself and live your life don't compare yourselfto others because you will never find an answer nor anything good from. Life will be so much better if you just live it and accept you for you and don' try to be anyone else.

well, don't put yourself down. everyone had their own different looks and all of your friends have somehting about them that they don't like, you may not just notice it. it may only be you that notices that your slightly bigger than everyone else. don't worry about it. as i said everyone had their own different qualities and some they may not like. try not to be insecure about it, oh and talk about the newest clothes you bought. or anything on the news. you could even talk about what your doing this weekend or school. try to keep the conversation going even if you say something random! best of luck.

I think the other two are right you do have to except yourself. Once you get that down things will get better. Try wearing flats so the the height difference isn't very pronounced and if you dont' feel girl try putting on makeup. If you don't like wearing makeup you don't have to put on tons of it just little touches like lip gloss and maybe some eyeliner. I know that when I feel a little down and then put on some make up. I feel prettier. For not being able to talk to people. I have to again repeat that you've got to learn to be yourself. Otherwise you won't have any fun and it will come off as you being awkward. Just don't take talking to people so seriously. Even if you blunder and say something stupid just laugh it off. Being able to talk to people isn't a skill most are born with. I think if you want to get comofortable with talking to people you've just got to put yourself out there. One tip though for having a conversation. You can always walk away before it starts getting those awkward silences. Just say. "Oh I see my friend____ over there. I'll talk to you later." I do that all the time and I feel way less uncomfortable.
