I move to U.S when i was about 10 from asia(can't tell specific where) , I am a guy but pretty weak (i cry easily).everyone from my school seem nice but i'm just afraid to talk to people because i'm afraid they will laugh :(because of my accent or something . I am now in 9 grade but it just still worse as before , I feel sad and depressed everyday . I don't talk to people because i'm afraid they said im gay and stuff , I never talk to people unless they ask me question . Everytime I talk infront of class my eyes start to burn and i feel like crying , i don't know why . It just so pathetic , when i was in 8th grade I told my crush that i like her but she just ignore me after that :(. Everytime someone ask me what i am listen to or what my hobby is , I just either lie or avoid the question because I'm afraid they will laugh . You see me , that happy smart kid doing okay , But i'm not okay . I don't know what to do or who i am anymore , I just feel like friend that nice to me are fake...

Sorry if that was too long , but i'm really sad . Please don't laugh if my english is horrible .

Your English isn't all that bad, my friend.
Don't worry it's something I have to deal with, I used to suffer from it really bad, I used to dread seeing my friends unexpectedly through fear of not knowing what to say or how I would avoid the painful, awkwardness of my personality.
All it took for me was a particular moment that made me realise everyone else has these feelings too. SO from then on I've always thought, if you just seem happy and open and like you are everyone's best friend, then everyone else will treat you just that way.
I hope you gain the confidence you need, you certainly seem like you deserve it.

Is it possible you have social anxiety? Or perhaps general anxiety? I don't know if you're allowed to post web links here but it's worth looking up :)
