Hey, I'm not sure if you'll respond, but I don't know what to do. I don't think that I'm really shy or insecure, but I just don't know what to say and how to keep the conversation flowing smoothly. I start at a new high school in a few days as a sophomore, and I will be the new kid. I get that being confident is important, and I will certainly do that, but what do I talk about and how do I keep conversations without any effort like I see so many people do. Everything I see a person's story of them hanging out with their friends I always wonder how they held a conversation for so long, and why can't I. I never had this problem when I was in middle school, so I really don't know what changed, and i wanna remove this mindset.
