So I'm trying out this new website to help meet people, and what you're required to do is fill out a profile introducing yourself to others to see if they want to contact you. I have one good friend...a girl (but we're not in a relationship), whom I spilled my worries to regarding making friends and meeting people. She told me I needed to have more self-confidence, and it made a lot of sense; she said confidence is contagious, so if I exude confidence, people will like me. AND she said making friends is simpler than I was thinking.
So I wrote my profile trying to do that...talk myself up, talk about my strengths, etc. I sent it to her for some feedback. She said I was TOO confident, that I came across sounding like an bumm! So NOW I have to go back to analyzing everything I wrote and said with a fine-tooth comb! I thought I was free...that I DIDN'T have to think and scrutinize everything I say and just enjoy myself. I guess not. As much as I like my friend, her advice is driving me nuts. I just want to be me and be liked for it!
