Do you ever find that you're a different person in different situations? I never wanted to be that person, but I think no matter what you handle various situations differently. No matter how much I don't want to admit that.
I was really annoyed when I was at my moms house on Sunday. She decided to have a little neighborhood Christmas party and before people arrived I felt like she was one person, and then her friends come over and she is this whole other person. Obviously, it's not like she morphs into a random person it's just certain characteristics that are emphasized or particular things she does in front of different groups.
I was really "annoyed" for lack of a better word when we left her house. I worked myself into a hissy. Then I was remembering the night before Jared and I went to his company party, and right after to a house warming party for one of his long time friends, we don't see often. Both places, I felt uncomfortable and I definitely felt like I was a hermit. I was so attached to Jared, because he was the one who knew everyone at each place. I didn't talk to tons of people and I was more or less waiting to leave so I could take a deep breath and get back into my comfort zone. I could almost feel myself sweating when people would start to awkwardly make conversation with me. I wanted to have a Jared shield that I could just throw in front of me.
I wish I wasn't like that. I am not that person.
Is it confidence that allows you to be the same person all the time? I like who I am. When I feel comfortable. I am confident in my personality, so I am not tugging on J's arm. I am laughing, joking, and usually you can't make me stop talking! That is me.
I'd prefer to be that loud girl, NOT a quiet person awkwardly pacing about.How do you become that confident? Is it all a game of practicing and faking it till you make it?
