So…I need help.
I’ve been told I’m pretty articulate when it comes to writing. But the problem is that when you ask me to talk I am the biggest mess ever. I’m usually not that bad with people I talk to [as in SPEAK to] regularly just because I’ve grown to be comfortable with it. Once people are used to me being all weird and saying stupid things, I become less nervous, and actually say less stupid things. Funny how that works.
The main obstacle is phone conversations with people I don’t talk to. I’m not very eloquent with new people either way, but something about phones makes it even worse. I guess in person I can use gestures…I like gestures. I practically talk with my hands. Not being able to use gestures just takes me out of my comfort zone and I go nuts. There are also those certain people who I find myself trying to impress [certain friends, bands, etc.], which just REALLY makes me a mess. I want to seem like a “cool person” but I usually come off as a dork.
Hm. Perhaps the solution to this problem of mine is just being honest instead of trying to be cool.
