I've had less than that.\n1 out of 100 people are mechanical,ruthless and without fear that can pull it off. It's all about reaction time and how you deal with the stress of the situation.\nI didn't think I was. I was always a big soft liberal.\nStill scares me that I am. I avoid these situations as I do not like this part of me.\nI suggest you do the same.\nEither way. YOU LOSE!

i think that is just the personality of some ppl. you just have to be aware of how other people are feeling around you, that's all. i sometimes notice if i'm making someone feel small, ignored or uncomfortable. just try to monitor that more... i know about the stress... it's crazy

Speaking in front of people doesn't bother me. In fact, when I was in high school, I would trade places with my twin sister to do her speeches in speech class because she was always afraid to do them.

I can read people and situations to the extent that many people think I have paranormal talent.  Not everyone is attracted by this.  Some are scared of me.

Inexperience and immaturity.

Yes, it can get on your nerves sometimes. People have a tendency to make the experiences they are having, so much bigger than anyone else's. We all have the same feelings we just react differently according to our personalities. Let's face it, some are not as strong as others. Just bear with them, give them support if you can. If your problems are overwhelming you at the time, back away quietly and tend to your own needs at the time.  So sorry you feel this way. Hope it gets better.

Fear of rejection because everybody has their own dream of how a person should act and how they should behave.I shouldn't worry about the disapproval of others and just be free to say what want without any fear of someone disapproving of me.I get very shy around certain people because I fear that they wouldn't like my sense of humor or interest.I would be more free if I could just stop basing my sense of self on the opinions of others.

Is it really that hard to behave?

FEAR OF SPEAKING IN PUBLIC.  This was really bad - I was even afraid of interviews (that's only one person), so I guess I was afraid of strangers, especially a whole bunch of them in an audience.  Yes, I conquered it. How?  I tried just trying to relax, think of the audience as just some people similar to me (didn't work for me.)  I was a basket case, couldn't even SIT in class and take my turn reading something out loud. Tried a tranquilizer too.  You can't fool your defense mechanism, and after a couple of years I discovered that what I was afraid of was being nervous and obvious, like shaking head, hands, weak legs, hard to talk, so that made me nervous and therefore afraid.  I went to a seminar designed to bully you into ridding your fear.  Long story short, I joined a Toastmasters' Club, shook with nervousness the first time the Table Topics leader called on me to give an opinion on the day's topic, I was so embarrassed.  But I went to all the meetings, did my speaking assignments, and overall it worked great, took about a year to gain the confidence I needed.  Won some speech contests beyond the club setting, held office in the club, and even became president.  My phobia stemmed from childhood feelings of inadequacey, inferiority, being afraid whether my mother approved of what I did.  Well, we're adults now, and have to just go forward.  Yes, I'm sure I'm not still bugged by it, because I've had plenty of experience in not being afraid. But I know what you mean.  In the beginning even after successes, I'd always think, "What if I'm afraid again?"  I would think of my successes, no matter how big or small.  Then I decided, "Well, if I do, I'll just speak anyway, the nervousness will go away and not be noticeable."  I also learned that when extremely nervous, we try to hold ourselves stiff so as not to shake, especially the head and neck.  We don't breathe enough, and that makes it worse.  Long winded, aren't I?  Just wanted to help.

Some, \nbut I'm a very guarded person, so I have to know people really well before I become close friends with them.

Sometimes I just crack myself up. It is terrible when people start to stare, but then that makes me laugh all the more. Ya know.\n\nI am able to leap tall piles of laundry in a single bound\nI am more powerful then a speeding blender\nI am faster then a speeding child\nAnd I often wonder why that birdie did that in my eye and how glad I am that cows don't fly.\n\nOther than that, I am just an ordinary everyday sane psyhco.  Why in the world would I want to be anything else?\n\n:)

I think it has a lot to do with unreal expectations that we as people can put on ourselves, others, and on situations. When we are young, we are emerging as people so it is understandable to be insecure. But as I got older, I was able to gradually accept who I was and no longer had to try to fill the role of some fantasy character that I imagined that I could be. I just learned to let me be, let them be, and to let things be. And now I am happy.

You like being original, but you are also insecure and need the approval of the people that surround you. Well, that's what I think, but, since I don't know you... well, it is difficult to say
