Soo...School started for me today..

[I.J.]

And it was pretty cool to be with my friends and everything again, but there's a few problems..

It seems that some people think that I'm "inappropriate", and they think I'm kinda weird. I guess last year I got my humor from inappropriate and childish stuff. Before school ended last year i kinda refrained from doing that. But I guess they still think of me as if I'm still doing it..

Also, I know alot of people in my grade (8th), and have some close friends, but some aren't really close to me. But it seems as if I know mostly everybody and I'm somewhat a friend to them, but I'm not that close to them. Like, if we would do a group project or whatever, they would pick someone else over me.

And I'm really talkative if someone gets me to talk, but I never START the conversation, and I'm a bit uncomfortable sometimes, like I'm the outcast because my friends seem all outgoing and crazy and fun, while I'm not so much like that. I'm also uncomfortable asking someone to hang out.

So, do you guys have any ideas on how to be more talkative and outgoing towards people, and how to ask someone to hang out without making it an awkward situation? Also, just any tips on school and socialization.:whoops:

I've been like that since I was like 11...

I know how you feel, and if anything, I can tell you you must get over this somehow, because in my case, it only got worse from that...

Try to be more open, asking someone to hangout might seem awkward when you say it, but you must think that it really isn't in the end... just ask, try to not be afraid to do so.
