I have been in alot of situations to test my self confidence lately and I am going to mark this as done. Turns out I am more confident than I thought. I am naturally a bit shy and equated this with lack of confidence, but they are two separate things. This past weekend, I attended my work Christmas party alone, not knowing who amongst my coworkers knows that the husband and I have seperated. I did pretty good, I had a good time, and I didn’t feel like a loser going alone. More people knew than I thought, and were very kind to me. I felt like this was a big step for me and I took it and did great.
