I have a hard time starting to talk to people. I am what you would call a little anti-social. It’s an actual problem for people, those of whom are good with speaking to others. Some people just don’t like to talk to people they don’t know at first.
I have a mild case of the problem. I can’t exactly say that I’m completely anti-social because I do talk to others if put in that situation and while I am awkward, people find me pleasant to talk to. I just can’t start a conversation well.
Other people find it easier to take a first step and be friendly. I myself, am not this kind of person. For me reaching out is hard. That might make what my next step in life a little hard for me.
I’m going off to college and it’s in another state with no one I know anywhere nearby. I will be utterly alone with no one I know from before.
You can see how that can be a little daunting for me.
With this problem I find I can’t exactly escape the fear that it will be hard for me there but I also feel so reassured that this was the best choice for me.
Going out of my comfort zone a little at a time has always been my plan and this is just another step.
If I break it down I can reach out a little at a time and make a new friend each time then I should be fine.
In a months time I will be in a place alone with no old friend to help me through my new life.
It’s going to be great.
