I have no social skills and it’s sad. I don’t know how to go up and talk to someone or hold a conversation without sounding and lookin incredibly awkward. I leave every conversation beating my head cause I didn’t know what to do or said something that wasn’t right. i’m so inept I just want to pretend i’m mute or something. i’m scared to talk to anyone and I don’t know what to do i’m so lost

Don’t know what’s wrong with me

My dude/dudette I feel you. It's so freaking hard to talk to people. I always stay quiet and try to hurry and leave or say a few short words and scurry out. Heck, I was in my math class and this guy behind me asked if I could get his skateboard but I was to scared to look at him and I didn't do anything cause I thought the guy right next to me would. I never said anything out of fear XD. I say this to relate than tell you this. We can't hold it against ourselves that we're like this though, usually our life experiences cause us to act a certain way. Once we figure those things out we can start trying to move forward. Like for me, my awkwardness was a result of bullying and isolation from others. It's why I can't ever talk to people. In order to combat this I'm trying to write online and talk to people (tho anonymously cause I'm way to scared, baby steps though you know?). So whatever you're going through you could try to pinpoint your struggles and try to take extremely small steps to change your situation. I think this could be considered a step (you typing online) seeing as people can view your words and comment. So think of this as a victory in trying to talk to people, cause you clearly explained yourself well. I don't think you should be hard with yourself, you are just as amazing because of the unique experiences you have to offer to those around you. Besides, The only people you really need to be open to completely are the ones who have your back. Who will love you thick and thin, be it famial, platonic or romantic relationships. Those who truly care for you will see the true you without you trying to work hard to be understood. Because they know who you are. Those who view you as weird or don't care, don't worry about them. They aren't worth your time and effort. I hope that your journey to change your habits succeed. But remember this, YOU ARE NOT ANYTHING NEGATIVE. Don't judge yourself too harshly. The worlds harsh as it is. Hold your crown up! Cause you're a king/queen/whatever you want to be.
ReplyIt must really suck having issues with being social,I can't relate at all on how it must feel lacking social skills and feeling like your can't talk to people. Luckily, I don't have that issue whatsoever. Otherwise, I wouldn't be marrying my current partner, have friends and other experiences with people.
However, I'm mostly picky in who I want to socialize with and whether it's worth it or not. It all comes down to who I can trust really and to me it's important. Don't worry, you can always get help for it and improve your social skills.
Good luck.
