Dear Reenna,

Well it seems like your asking me to help you on your confidence. Well that I can do. Sometimes each of us are shy because we have the feeling of being rejected if we talk and people don't listen. This comes from personal matters. Being brave has a little bit to do with it but if you want to be more brave you got to be brave little by little. You have a friend, how do you talk to her? How did you meet her? If it was easy to become her friend I know it will be easy to be friends with others. Sometimes the way we dress or the way we think impacts the confidence we have. So try to do things to make you feel pretty and that will be just another step to being a little more confident with yourself. Just remember everyone is different when it comes to personalities and how we act. Your friend may be confident but it may be natural for her and others not so much. Make a choice to try to be more social. You may find yourself smiling and earning yourself a new friend which will definitely boost your confidence :)

I hope this helps!
