Confidence in Being me


Question Posted Saturday January 31 2009, 12:38 am

Im 16, and i can honestly say that i dont know much about myself, what i really like, what i dislike what i want to be and who i am. I think its mostly because i act different, maybe even fake around each person i talk to all day long and by the time i get home, and im finally alone, i dont know what personality is mine. or really anything about myself at all. I dont want to be like this, but i am. I act certain, different ways around people to get them to like me. I know my friends should really like me for my personality, but how can i show my personality when i dont know what it is and when i dont have the confidence to be me? Im really confused, and im not really sure where to go from here.

maybe you act fake because you don't have a true friend.. or you may think u do but you don't.. maybe you should find someone a person you want to be your true friend.. and tell them everything about you.. your whole lifes story.. yeah know? maybe if you find someone who you can tell everything to then you can finally be your true self to

i think that you should find out in which skin you are most comfortable in...like when you're changing to make sure people. then you have to figure out what you wanna be. you being comfortable in you're own skin is the most important. so find out about you. and then you may have confidence in who you want to really be. hope i helped. good luck =)

Hello,well your teenage years are and can be very confusing,highschool and or middle school unfortunatley teaches you to be someone that you are not to be liked and fit in with others,thats ok to a certain degree but if you are not being true to yourself then those relationships are pointless,most of the people you meet and are friends with in school do not last because everyone is not being true to themselves. The person that you are when you are alone and at home is your true self.There you have no one to judge you,no one to impress and you are just acting and feeling you wan to feel. Whatever you do for fun that you want to do and that brings joy to you not because your friends like it are the things you like.You can always try to write down the things you like and dislike from music,tv shows,maybe a favorite class,favorite book,favorite game..these ideas will lead you to bigger ideas of what you actully like and dislike.Say your favorite class is science(biology)maybe you want looj into becoming a biologist,just learning about life and the world around you, maybe love to dance or sing.All you have to do is take time to think and look deep within in yourself and say who am i?.You may not find this answer right away but it will come in time just be patient. Everyone is unique in there own way and has special attributes and characteristics that make them the way they are no matter who they are.So examine yourself when you are at home and the things you think about and do,this will give you complete insight into your many personality traits. Once you do this you will learn to be more comfortable with beng your true self around others because right now you cant because you dont know who you are exaclty. You are very special and beautiful inside and out and you dont need anyone to tell you that you have to beleive in yourself and everything that you are. Once you become your true self and show it to the world you will start to connect with new friends and if they dont accept you for you then they do not deserve to be in your life.Remember you always come first,your emotions and feelings,those are what matter most,if you cant be there for yourself then you cant be there for others.I hope this helped and if you have any further questions on this topic I would be glad to help you,I can easily come up with questions to help you look within yourself and figure out the things you like and dislike,it will take time but it will be worth it,you can always send me a private message,dont hesitate to contact me. The best of luck to you,YOU ARE AMAZING,IN EVERYWAY..NEVER FORGET THAT!
SINCERLY,DIAMOND:)
