I think of you as my friend. I've found you really supportive and caring for me to talk to when I'm feeling bad or lonely.

I notice that you are quieter when there are more people around too. I think that just how you have some anxiety talking to people when there are a few of them around some others have that, too. And so they feel more comfortable to talk when there are only a couple others who they already feel close to. Maybe you get some of that, too?

I don't deal with rejection very well, either. Hate it... I think there is a bit of a culture here where sometimes people just seem to want to talk to people who they know already. I feel sad about that (wish they would give others a chance) but guess it is due to their own insecurity, really. And... Kinda sad for them too cause they are cutting themselves off from a potential source of support. You hang in there...
