Insecure?

Post Reply New Topic

Do any of you guys feel insecure in any way? It can be from wanting to tell someone something but you don't have the courage to tell or having a few friends but thinking otherwise? I'm here to help

I'm insecure all the time about too many things.
I hate phones and sometimes need days to mentally prepare myself to call somebody.
You know these people who say stuff like "I'm sure I terribly failed that test?" all the time and then do really good? I'm one of those people - but only in the subjects I'm always doing good in. Whenever something comes easy to me I automatically assume that it isn't really easy but that I don't understand something and somehow have to be wrong and actually aweful at it.

I also rarely ever know when somebody is a friend and have a hard timr keeping contact to them ever since I graduated. One friend (so she's a really good one) actually told that they are still my friends, even though through increasing distance, moving away and these changing circumstances other things obviouls change.

I don't know... there are some people who seem to be nice but after a while I figured they were really condescending, mainly since especially one guy whom I had some classes with would always ask me if I had already got started on a project or enjoyed something (which could be small talk) but was always surprized and seemed envious when I actually excelled in tests and projects, while I sucked at oral participation.

So how do people recognize friends and are able to differ them from friendly-acting enemies (for the lack of a better term)? It's so confusing that they are, if you will, disrespectfully nice and when somebody's smiling and using a friendly tone of voice (and, of course, saying somethintg that could be neutral statement meant to start a conversation) I automatically concluse that the person has good intentions.
