Soo i used to be shy and intriverted but i hated being perceived like this bc im actually an extravert but just traumatized, lol. I decided to change and be more like myself. Ive been through many changes but the result is very satisfying- i feel better, im more sincere with others and all aspects of my life improved as i started to be more open and showing my true self to the world.
But despite im extraverted and stuff, i still feel this little anxiety when i talk to one girl from my university. We will go to one group as freshmans this year. But i don't feel like myself when im texting with her and speaking in real life. I thought if im extraverted as i always wanted to be, i wont feel like this.
Im afraid to be like this with everyone in my group, to perfome despite i dont even want to, and that no one will get to know real me.
I think that's because im still afraid to show some parts of myself that i think she wont like. I really want to get rid of this so i can live my life freely. Do you have some tips how to be yourself around people you dont know closely and dont be afraid of thier judgment?
