There are certain things I'll never understand. Like for instance: Why would you elect to wall yourself off from meeting potential friends? I just don't get it.
I mean, if you're the type of person who doesn't have many friends to begin with, why would you commit social hara kari by staying at home on a Friday night, at the beginning of a LONG weekend? Please, someone, tell me. I'm reminded by Bette Midler singing "Glory of Love": You gotta win a little, lose a little.... See people, you have to take a chance and crawl out of your shell once in a while, and test the social waters. If you don't, you're never going to amount to much, because in this day and age, it's all about networking and communcation. The more contacts you make, the better your chances are to be happier in life, love and work. I don't mean you have to manipulate or leech off others, but good friendships go a long way, even if it's just for someone to hear you whine about your misfortunes. Sometimes that's all you need to dust yourself off and give it another go. Kids, life's a party; and if you act like a hermit then you'll never be invited. Remember when you're 15, and there was that big huge strategically placed pimple that made you feel like Rudolf on Christmas Eve? Well, unless you overcome that trauma, your whole life will be one big puberty spurt, with nothing but awkward limbs and a seeming lack of hair gel and Oxy10. Have some self-confidence, heck, fake some. Whatever you do, don't show fear! That's it, I'm done. Go out there and have fun. Try not to think you're inadequate (although you probably are....), throw yourself out to new people and act like you're greatful that you've met them, because in the long run, you just might. ....Deep inside, aren't we all just shy little kids playing grownup? |
