I have no problems with, say, talking to strangers, striking up small talk at the parties, or yelling on strangers because they are acting like idiots on a bus or something. I never had problems in school, when I needed to confront a strict and unjust teacher nd tell her I didn’t agree with her and her methods.
I’m afraid of flying, but I still travel by plane.
You’d think I’m courageous, wouldn’t you? I’m not. I can be as outspoken as I wish with strangers, but when it comes to the people close to me I’m the worst coward there is. I’d do anything, ANYTHING, to avoid a conflict with a friend or a family member. I always give in, because I don’t want to fight. I’m a coward, I am. I need to start speaking my mind to the people I love, not just to the world I don’t care one fig about.
