guess you can call me a semi-introvert.I 'm sort of shy-quiet to myself type of gal,sometimes I walk with my head down,because I'm afraid that people might see me as being arrogant so in turn I do the opposite and sort of retreat into the opposite. I think people kind of mistake me as being the opposite, I want to open up and be more friendly znd open without caring so much as to what people think...I'm so consumed as to what people think and it in turn makes me stay to myself and not really socialize,(I'm especially like this around women) Why am I not confident ? How can I become more confident and carefree without caring what others think?I wanna be myself! Please help!

It sounds to like you have too many people in your life who don't care about you. That will kill anybodies self esteem. You need new friends. You need good friends. Try checking out some different churches. If the people are snotty in one, shake the dust off of your feet against them and move on to another. If the people are nice and accepting of you, stay a while and see what happens.

I have struggled with this and there is no easy solution. What I did is i went to a different neighborhood, where nobody knew me. Then i went to a Coffeeshop / Bar and pretended to be someone else. I pretended to be a confident and social person chatting with anybody i saw. I knew they didn't know anybody i knew and i knew i would never see them again so i had nothing to lose. It kinda taught me how to be confident.

R&S anyone?
Anyway, I was pretty introverted until recently. Then it all came spilling out and now I talk about twice as much as my friends. The only thing I can say is have more confidence. No one thinks bad of you except yourself.

Find something that you're good at. Display that confidence during that time. Then carry that confidence over to other things.
