Dear Annie,
People say that I am cheerful and confident because I
tell a lot of jokes and laugh a lot with my friends. The
truth is, I am really shy and go red in the face
whenever a stranger joins our group. I feel so
embarrassed. I didn’t use to mind it, but now I do.
You see, I like this new girl in our computer science class. She is
outgoing, sporty and a bit wild. We both like basketball, and I want to
ask her out to a game. My friends know about my face problem, but
she doesn’t. How can I feel confident when I have this problem? Please
help me.
