I Have No Friends, Be My PenPal !!
6 Comments

Hi. I have anxiety when I talk to people at school. Unless were alone... I dont know why but its easier to talk to someone one on one when no one else is in the room. Im a 19 girl. I talk to people i know in real life on the internet and texting but in person im extremely shy. I feel so stupid. I try to avoid talking to them on the internet and texting, so when I do meet them in person i wont feel stupid. Aeven though I would love to be best friends with them ! Anyway i like to talk to people I have never met in person online so I would have to feel scared and avoid seeing them in person. BTW is that normal?
Do you think it's normal?

I know how you feel. My only friend is my girlfriend but outside of us, we are pretty much alone. Its not that we are ugly or bad people, its just that her and I are completely clean and people of this sort are called boring.

I wrote that last post yesterday. If you truly cannot find anyone, I will be your penpal.

Yes, it just takes time and confidence. I saw your picture on a different post and you are pretty hot. I think it was the "pigtail" post.

You should have no trouble making friends but anything in life requires effort and risk. Don't be afraid.
