" I want to go out tonight too! And, my friends aren't around either. I thought about going out... then I would have to drive and I don't want to do that after having a few beers. So I have four beers in my fridge and I'm going to chat online and drink my beer... maybe I should go get more... "

" i used to go out alone all the time. i attract ppl to me for some reason. my friends could never understand how i did it. i havent been out alone in a long while but when i go out with friends i still attract ppl to me and for some reason i dont get scared (as long as im not drinking)

im a medium so i end up doing a lot of readings "

" if ur not used to it, i think u shouldnt. BABY STEPS! gain ur baby steps. its all about the confidence and its there deep down inside you. i used to carry a book as a barrier. eventually someone will approach u about the book soon u wont need a book. talk about what you know what ur comfortable with. i would first bring a friend with you ( when you can nab em') what about a house party? ur in ur home and that alone will give u some comfort.
