Well this has been a spectacularly shitty day, for a number of reasons I either don't want to talk about, or can't really talk about.

And in case this winds up being my last post, it's been fun you guys. You guys have seriously helped me deal with so much shit, and have done so much to help prevent me going insane from lack of talking to people.

I'm just sorry I haven't given back as much as I've gained.
Situation resolved, and it seems I'm not being deported, or any of the other incredibly unpleasant things that could have happened.
Yeesh, that would have been mega shitty. Not even on a "We're Internet frandz" level, but rather on an entirely human level. I'm glad you were not deported, Pnx.

Welp, so school is over, I come back home with my report, and learn that my grandfather died.

It's kind of terrible, especially for my aunt, since within a little over a year both of my grandparents and my father all passed away. Sad times, but I try to not think about it because I'll only end up depressing myself further.

I guess the cat is staying here indefinitely then.

There's been a shooting within walking distance of where I live, right across from the gas station where my friend works, I actually had to take a different road to work because police still had the area sectioned off.
I need to call my friend when I get off work to make sure they're ok.

Well then.
The very last time I'll see my crush ever has passed, and I didn't even speak to her.

I wish I wasn't so fucking akward. Literally everyone else can just walk up to somebody and talk to them but I just can't. I don't talk to a bunch of people on the same time, I hardly ever send texts to anyone, I'm just a worthless socially inept retard.

I'll just go do what I always do and play games to forget all this BS while hoping that my grandparents don't try to talk to me (but I don't doubt that they will)

Hey. Hey. I definitely can't do that, either.
And believe me, I know how you feel- I wish I had the sort of confidence that seems to come naturally to so many people.
I also wish I could offer you some helpful advice on the matter, but being in the same boat and all there isn't much I can do other than bail faster.

How I ended up being way more confident:
  • Mentally note down how you behave when feeling confident
  • Pretend to be confident by doing those things
  • Continue pretending you think you're really great and amazing for social purposes
  • Maintain for a while
  • End up actually thinking you're pretty great and amazing

Realistically deportation might have been a bit unlikely, but I've already gotten one mark from someone calling the police and making things up to get me arrested. When someone acts like they might be about to do something similar I get kind of scared. I've been told another misdemeanour means I get deported.

It's over now though, so now I just have to figure out how to calm my nerves enough to actually get some sleep.

Well then.

*hugs* Trust me, there'll be other crushes, it may seem like the end of the world, but it's not.

It actually does work. Hell, there were studies done (I can't get them right now, if you really want that bother me about it later) that showed that when people were made to assume confident poses, they got an actual biochemical response that made them feel more confident (levels of a bunch of hormones were changed in a significant way), and the opposite got the opposite response.

The problem isn't confidence, it's that I literally never know what the fuck to say and always end up standing around akwardly.

Oh. I just ask people questions and try to guide the conversation towards the other person contributing everything but without them noticing it.
