In need of Confidence

0

I recently ended a relationship with a guy who i was very dependent on and it was an unhealthy relationship. Im trying to be more independent and be confident in who i am but i dont know why its so hard. Im not shy but im never the first person to start a conversation. I want to meet new guys and move on with my life but i just cant build up the confidence to talk to any. Any advice?

Try spending sometime with yourself first, getting to know you. This will give you time to know what you want as well as strong point and time to develop your weaker points. Make new friends and learn to socialise more. You'll do fine, all the best!

try okcupid to meet guys? but the self-confidence well... wear and do the things that make you feel good about yourself and keep your head up and tell yourself you're an amazing person ^.^ that's what I do sometimes when I feel like no one likes me...

Before you go for guys, make new friends. This is to prove to yourself that being alone doesn't mean being lonely. True friends can help you better with breakups and that stuff, and they can make sure that you don't get so dependant on this guy by giving you a reality check once in a while. If you want, you can message me and I'm more than willing to be your friend:)

Hello miss Annabelle, you did the right thing in reaching out.

Pay attention to the posters before me, they have the right idea.

Step One: No more guys right now. It has come time to build your confidence in yourself, and that requires you spending time on yourself, FOR yourself.

By all means, continue to go out and spend time with friends, attend functions, live your life and have your fun, but put the romance up on a shelf for a while. It is time to clean off the mirror and have a nice, long look at who Annabelle has become, and what makes her happy. Re-introduce yourself to yourself. Quite literally.

Please keep in contact and let us know how things are going in your life. Always remember that you matter, and you are not alone.

In order to appear confidant to others you need to be confident with yourself. I totally agree with some of the other comments, wear and do what makes you feel the best, you need to try really hard to disregard what others think and that can be the main issue for many self confidence issues, but i watched a video the other day, a girl was talking about confidence and highschool and she said something along the lines of, "in order to be the shit, you need to act like the shit. but not a total little shit, you still need to be kind and stuff." even though it kind of sounds wrong, its the right idea. ive found with personal experience that if you forget about the insecurities you see when you look in the mirror and the whispers that other people might say and just think to yourself, that you are beautiful and pretty and amazing, and you just keep thinking that while you walk arounnd with your head held high others will start to believe its true too. confidence is contagious, and if you are confidant literally nothing can stop you.
