You have special qualities and you should be proud of it. You can tell so much from your personality that you have. Dont change a thing. And to being a conversation... first like usually should be a hey or hi... then how are you , hows your day, what are you up to , what are you doing, whats up, and then just start talking about something depending on where you guys are :) [ snowboardbabe's advice column | Ask snowboardbabe A Question ]

That's a very good quality and when people realize that, they will also realize that you are good friend. No, it's not good to lie to your parents, but some people do it anyway. It's all right to be shy, I'm totally shy too! When I talk with someone, I usually say something kind of random that makes people go 'whaaaat?' Then I explain it a little more and before ya know it, there's a conversation going about something random! Haha, sometimes even simple things, like "So, what's up?" Are good conversation starters. Just carry on from there, like if they say:
"Eh, I'm feeling a bit upset. I lost my iPod." Just respond naturally. Be yourself! I know it's a little hard and you probably blush, maybe fidget a little because I do that too, but then after a while, it goes away and you feel more casual. Don't tense up or anything. Relax. The other person is probably trying to communicate with you and if you're relaxed, they'll be relaxed. And for the record, geeks are pretty awesome ;) [ rotXinXpieces's advice column | Ask rotXinXpieces A Question ]
