-Penny Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Soo this is gonna sound really confusing but does anyone else find it hard to keep a conversation going, or start one? I would ask someone irl but I don’t know how :/ Like, for example, in school the other day, I got in trouble…not detention or anything, just had a bad day- so I got in the car when my mum picked me up after a club and I really wanted to tell her - she would find out somehow anyway so better me telling her than a random teacher. So as I said I got in the car and tried to tell her but all I could say was “Um” for about 3 minutes straight. I finally managed to tell her but only after she literally had to ask me “Has anything happened at school today?” It’s weird because when I’m chatting on here or on games it’s perfectly fine, but as soon as I speak to someone in person it becomes really awkward. Has anyone been able to get out of this or is it just a thing everyone has?- (Sorry this was a long post it’s really hard to explain it lol) MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we would all like not to be misunderstood and to explain our thoughts and views really clearly so we can end up tripping ourselves up. I think a good start could be to work on having faith in what you are going to say. What do you think? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that sounds good, I always know what to say but I just can’t get the words out, if that makes sense? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely! Remind yourself that you've got this - maybe start with a simple version of what you want to say and then gradually expand on it. With practice, it will gradually become easier and feel more natural and you'll start to feel a lot more confident. 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
