It's so easy for people to say "Just be yourself!" BUT I CAN'T! I'm only like this with girls, though!

Question - (25 September 2007) 2 Answers - (Newest, 25 September 2007)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Ok, where do I start? I feel so insecure about everything lately. Well most things. For example if I am around other girls I find it hard to engage in a conversation while being myself. Honestly I love my personality and I think I am a great person but it is hard for me to show this to other people. This has began ever since I lost my best friend, and beleive me she was really the best friend you could ask for, ever since she left I haven't been myself around people. It's strange. It's so easy for people to say... "Just be yourself!" BUT I CAN'T. I always feel under pressure when I am with girls that I am friends with or acquaintances. I don't know why I am not like this with guys but only girls, even if they are my friends.

dont_worry agony aunt i lost my best friend too, because i had to move..

and it was hard at the beggining because ihad to made new friends... aand you know at first i was very shy and quiet

but with time i started to show my true self and now i have many friends and people like me...

i guess the only thing you have to do is to lose that fear.

i know is not that easy, but you have to do it.

because the other girls are not better than you, so why are you so afraid to be yourself?you are not going to be rejected,even you are going to get a lot of more friends (:

so dont worry, please take all of your insecurities away, because you seem like a great girl and you even said you like your personality so what are you waiting for?

losing your best friend i guess it was very hard for you, and i imagine. but you have to move on... =(

its the only way

Im not sure if because you best friend has left you feel as though you are being disloyal or forgetting about her when you get close to other girls.

This is just a suggestion but without knowing you it is difficult to say.
