Since I was born (I believe) I have never talked a lot. In school people would say that I was shy and scared to speak my mind. But I believe they were wrong. I was not shy. I am reserved. I believe there is a difference between being shy and being reserved that many people confuse.
Just because the entire class to shout out their problems, reveal to people who they are and care very little about how much they say doesn't mean they are not shy. If I have to get in front of people to do a presentation, I am quite capable of doing it. However, if we were at a regular/fun get together, I wouldn't be the person talking. I would be the person listening. I just don't like talking too much, because I don't want everyone to know what I am thinking :p After I get to know you better and become comfortable with you, you can clearly see that I am not shy but reserved. I am quite adventurous :)
Did this ever happened to you? Or does it still happen? Tell me how you think people perceive you. Thanks for reading my post :) I hope you have a good rest of the day!
Be strong, be unique, and step out of your comfort zone!
