Through most of my life, for whatever reason, I've been considered a really trustworthy person. People have always called me the nicest in the class or whatever And in general trusted me. I don't know why, I guess because I'm a pretty low-key quiet person, and thats just what I am. Even when I tried to have a more talky personality iti seemed put on and didnt stick. My closer friends have always come to me with their problems and acquaintances have always felt comfortable talking about anything around me. But in the last year I developed social anxiety disorder and I think I seem less approachable. But really, the people I come across as less approachable to are people I never really talked to that much anyway and my closer acquaintances seem to trust me. Because I'm not in with a clique they all feel realtively comfortable with me. Like in one instance I was in a group in school of about 5 close friends and me, an acquaintance, and toward the end one said that they were not looking forward to working with other people on the next project because that we were the only people she felt comfortable with, and i was the only one who was not really a close friend. In another instance I was working on a project with someone from another clique and we were talking and she shared something with me about a friend of hers that if this story got out could have really damaged if not destroyed her reputation, not like I asked it just came up in conversation. It is very rare that any rumors are spread about me because im so low key and unsuspicious So I think they trust me even though Ive been a little unapproachable lately.
