Is it normal to be afraid of someone you don't know?

8 Comments

there's a girl in my university and we have the same major and whenever I see her I immediately freak out. It's not romantically. I feel like a worthless piece of shit when I see her. And she's a friend of one of my friends so a few times I was around her and she ignored me like I was invisible. I'm afraid to even talk to her. She looks so cool and different. I might throw up when I have to talk to her. is this normal?

      I would if it was someone else. but there's something about her that makes me feel anxious.

    Sounds like low self esteem. Don't put that girl on a pedestal. You are every bit as cool as she is, whether you know it or not.

    It might help if you can work out if she reminds you of someone you already know or have known

    Yeah, some people can make you feel worthless. It helps to realise that those people are usually arrogant pricks.
    Either that, or you have a problem with your image of yourself.

      we've never spoken actually so I don't know her. she looks a bit arrogant though. but I guess I have low self-confidence when it's about people who I think that are better than me.

        I have that too with some people. I think often they just remind you of someone else who made you feel bad. I'd say try and talk to her, or at least say hi. Maybe if you get her to smile she won't be so scary anymore.
