How do i become more outgoing?

How do i become more social? more outgoing?

  • (I'm 15) I lack a lot of confidence, my social skills keep getting worse over time and i feel so dead inside. Everything reflects upon my personality, i don't know who i am anymore? Am i the funny person people view me as? Am i the awkward shy person people say i am? Am i that boring girl that hardly has anything to say? Am i that sarcastic ***** that nobody likes? Or am i that nice outgoing girl that says the strangest things some times? I have a terrible home life, i have a very large family and i absolutely dread it when they come over. I'm either always alone in my room or contemplating whether or not to go and say hello, and deciding on how im going to do that without being all awkward and shy. Every time i ask people for advice, they always tell me to be more confident? to smile? to communicate more?... but how do i do that? how do i become that person that i know i am?

Hi Anisa, You're really young so don't worry about feeling sy, most people do. When I was younger I was really shy when I met people sometimes, now I'm 24 and I'm confident. First you need to find out who YOU are what are your likes etc this will give you your own personality. Don't follow clicks etc not worth it. When you meet someone don't be shy to say hi first. Keep a smile on your face and great them as if you've met them before. Ask people questions and try to get involved. If you feel nervous around people push them out of your mind. Being involved is the best way to get confidence if someone see your invovled and you have a smile on your face don't think how people will percieve you just be your own person :) x
