social awkwardness

<p>I know being socially awkward may be something that you've never encountered in your life but it is really my dilemma. </p>

<p>In elementary school I was very outgoing. Something major happened during my middle school year and I have gradually become more and more socially awkward. What can I do to grow out of it? It is now becoming a bigger and bigger problem and I just don't know how to deal with it.</p>

<p>I’ve noticed that there are different types of socially awkward people.</p>

<p>Are you just shy? Or do you not know how to interact with other people and they tend to avoid you because they find the conversations “awkward”?</p>

<p>Don’t worry! Socially awkward is my middle name.</p>

<p>…never ever, I am the female Casanova. Partially why I like to hang out on CC. So many potential suitors knocking down my door… :wink: Don’t worry, you’re in good company.</p>

<p>Middleschool is just bleh all around D: Nobody really revels in it excepting those kids that get a leg up on puberty :rolleyes: .Anyhow, I digress. Maybe start doing things with other people in a study group? That’s a good way to get to meet people. </p>

<p>When you get to college just be spontaneous! Join a lot of organizations, see which one fits you best :slight_smile: This too shall pass.</p>

<p>i was the most popular kid in middle school. i had friends calling me up nonstop, but those days are history. I am socially awkward myself! its senior year, and i dont think i can really call anyone my “friend” more like…aquaintances. but yeah. you’re not alone man.</p>

<p>Yea I often times wish I was less awkward too. I don’t think I was always like this. It’s strange.</p>
