This was my whole problem in high school. I went to a totally different school than any of my friends and so I knew nobody. I was so debilitating shy I wouldn't even talk half the time. A lot kids thought I was stuck-up especially the popular girls (talk about the pot calling the kettle black!)by my senior year I loosened up a bit, enough to make a few close friends and enough to where even some of those same popular girls were being huggy sweet with me. High school still sucked though. It wasn't until college that I slowly became more comfortable talking in groups and meeting new people, I'm sure the speech classes I took helped a lot. Now I find it easy to talk in any situation. I still have a quiet day or two but that doesn't bother me. I enjoy being solitary sometimes.
Is it normal to come across as cold and distant?
