.....even though you know there are people there willing to listen to you?

I feel this way quite often, but I just push it aside. When I want to talk to someone, anyone really, to open myself up I just feel like I'd be a nuisance or burden to them, so I shy away from it. I want someone to talk to, but I'm afraid of how they'd react. Afraid they'd be annoyed or call me selfish and self-centered, or worse, not know what to say in general, making me feel like it was all just a waste of their time. So I push it away, listen to music and just try to forget about how I feel, hoping the things I want to say and express will go away.
