HEY THANK YOU FOR YOUR’E STORY! Today 10/12/11 On my way to school and i wasn’t wearing what i expected to wear (Because it was at the dry cleaners) So my moral broke down and i was not confident. But then i remembered about your story i read the day before (With the hole in the shirt and yet you still had a good time at the party) And that gave me so much confidence that today was a good day! I met a few people, talked a lot more, met up with more friends/groups, and i even met a girl i kinda like now. Thank you!

Like you I’m the sort who can pull off extroverted but am mostly introverted. Add to that a Woody Allen sized neuroses and I’ve started to avoid, well, at least not seek out, social situations rather than put in the “effort”. But when I read “You’re overthinking everything. Nobody cares about you as much as they care about themselves” I burst out laughing. Of course! Why didn’t I think of that? Oh wait because I was too busy worrying about what I was thinking.

Thanks so much for the insight. Just stumbled on your blog, looking forward to nosing around the archives.

Pretending to be someone else is a good game to play, especially if you’re shy! It can help you speak up in social situations and talk to more people than you normally would. If you walk into a room and act like you own it, people are going to believe you’re extremely confident even though you might feel otherwise on the inside.
