Do ya'll have lots, some, little or no self confidence? I wouldn't say I have no self confidence at all...but then I have veeeerrryy little. I can be really hard on myself..it's not a cool thing but i can be proud of myself when i want to, too.

I have alot of confidence.

Kay Scarpetta · 02-06-2002, 08:47 PM

It depends.

When I'm doing good things- get good grades on a test, get a solo for flute [I don't play Clarinet anymore], make new friends, receive a compliment, etc. When I do that, I have a lot. I feel good about myself.

But other times- Depression, fights, ESPECIALLY when I get a bad grade, I'm so hard on myself it's not even funny. I have little to no self confidence.

So really, I guess it depends

Lots. I guess... I'm always happy (perky, as my description says... it's true!

) and I'm always in a good mood, so yeah, probably a lot of self confidence. Plus a few compliments and I'm self-confident. Probably..

I have very little self confidence when I am around someone my age or a few years older than me. It's weird, I shy up and act so stand-offish. I have alot of self confidence when I am around someone younger than me, even if it's just a few months younger; it's weird.

Also, when I tryout for a sport like b-ball or softball I lack in self confidence something fierce. I even shake at times. When I begin trying out I eventually ease up. It's weird though cause once I know I've secured myself a spot on the team my confidence is sky high. It's like I know I have the ability to make the team, but I don't trust myself...weird I know

I guess i'm just average, i mean, i have my shy moments and i have my bitchy moments.....so i guess i'm just in the middle? I can crack jokes, but i'm kinda border line sarcastic/mean...who knows?

Max Whittaker · 02-06-2002, 10:51 PM

Online I have a lot of self-confidence.

Off-line, I only have a little.

Warm & Fuzzy · 02-06-2002, 11:43 PM

Very little, I guess. I pull my hair out whenever a test comes along. I have one everyday, lol, so by the end of this year, I should be bald.

angel676 · 02-07-2002, 04:04 AM

More than half of my life, I've had very
little self confidence. I'll leave it at that!

I can understand that. It's easy to be all cocky when you're hiding behind a computer screen - not so easy when you're face-to-face with someone.
I'd say my self-confidence levels are ok. I used to be really shy and reserved when I was at school but since I've been working out in the big wide world I've come out of my shell.
I'm hopeless when I'm around someone I have a crush on though. I like to think I'm smooth and all, but when it comes to talking to that person my brain just turns to mush. I think I do a pretty good job of hiding it though.....I hope!
