The Sunday Post II | Friendship and Shyness



I am an extremely shy person and I have always been. This shyness can be quite an obstacle for making new friends and even just meeting new people. It is something I have strugled with all of my life; however, I have still managed to make an amazing group of friends I know I'll have near my.

I am extremely grateful for my group of friends. I have known some of them for more than 10 years and we have all grwon together which I think has made our friendship more strong. I know I can rely on them for anything I need and I know I have a shoudler to cry or someone to laugh with. We have all changed a lot in the last couple of years but everytime we see each other is like nothing has changed. I feel my true seld when I'm with them and I hope we would be in each other's life forever.

Being shy can be quite an struggle when you start a new chapter of your life. I started university almost 6 months again and I still strugle to talk to people and make friends. Don't get me wrong, there's a few girls I really get along with and I am really glad they are in my course. What I think makes me feel a bit bad is seeing how others in my class have already made extremely big and close group of friends whereas I need more time to get close to people. But that's okay; everyone is different and we shouldn't be pressured by the way others are or what others do. I have also find I don't have much things in common with most people in my course and. even though it is not a big issue to make friends it can be if you have to initiate a conversation. 

Also I feel like at first I really struggled to make more friends because I didn't want to loose my older friends and I didn't really want to loose them by making other friends. However, you need to make friends at university just for the purpose of surviving and once I realized that things went a bit better.



(Also, sorry for the lack of posts recently but I have been quite busy with university stuff).
