Be myself

i was told recently by a guy friend, that if i changed my personality I might have more luck in my love life! i wasn’t impressed! I questioned him and he said he meant was was that he thought i should be the real me and not the me i was when i first met him, saying that if i started off being more realaxed around people i might have more luck. still not to happy about that, but i still need to try and just be myself!

well, i think i am myself (underneath the utter shyness, which is slowly lessening, luckly!), although i still don’t feel ME so i don’t think it’s so much trying to be myself because i am, it’s more of a loving myself more as who i am and not wanting to be someone i’m not. as in reality i DO love how and who i am it’s just the constant self doubt that others won’t like me, when the evidence i’ve got is i’m not worse than anyone else, i just have to really and truly make myself believe it!! and keep up the self praise and hopfully i’ll begin to fit into being me, and not being shy of myself when i meet other people, like an apology for my personality! but just be completly and utterly me!
