were do i start.used to have alot of confidence but over the years it has slowly but surely been drained away from me.friends turning against me because i would not take drugs.been nice to people and have them spit it back in your face.an uncle of mine who laugh at me when i told him i would love to get married one day just because he is a womanising piece of scum.used to go into the chatroom and talk a little to the nice people there.than somedays i would be in there and say notting because i would not know what to say to start a good conversation or the fear of getting abruse off other people.when i go out and try and talk to a girl they just walk away without even me a chance to have a nice chat and getting to know one another.the only time i have seen true love was last year when one of my other uncles got married to the nicest woman i have ever meet.the two of them are so deeply in love and im so happy for them.just wish i had the confidence to talk to people and i wish they would just give me a chance to get to know me.

I have pretty much the same problem mate. If you find a cure, please let me know as tbh, it's really quite infuriating.

It's easy to gain confidence. Simply drink gallons of beer and spirits for several decades, climb flagpoles, walk out of pubic toilets in the pub with your trousers and shoes left back in a cubicle, appear in the newspapers for novel minor crimes to do with hacking phone lines and trying to paddle scout hut canoes down pavements at 2am, go through rehab, then... learn Kendo so that you can behead people with a sweeping brush handle and take public speaking lessons where you debate Dr Who's TARDIS and the meaning of Aristotle's Poetics - done sober. After that, nothing much then matters...
