hey guys i had a friend over 2 days ago which went well but for the start of it there were a lot of awkward silences which i find very uncomfortable. i watch a video yesterday on how to be myself around people and the guy said that catch your thoughts that are telling you to act the same way and let them stay there for a bit till they disappear and not to give into them. i rlly want to be able to be myself around my friends but i feel that if i am not talking then they might not want to be friends with my anymore.
i dont know what to do
is it okay if you have awkward silences from time to time? and how do you relax in those moments of awkward silences. i feel like i put pressure on myself to do what you are supposed to do rather than being myself because i see other people always talking to their friends with no awkward silences.
please help me,
looking forward to hear your replies
thankyou
regards, rachael
