Nice one Hexi - I bet that's made her feel much better; I can't help.
I had the same problem when I was young, I always pretended to be someone else, to be different but when I just started being myself and more relaxed It gave me much more confidence and really helped me in Making and Keeping friends, Just try making a little extra effort to be friendly - Should help - If not...
Yeh...
Should i pretend that i can relate? Perhaps recite empty platitudes? Everyone needs to find their own skin they are comfortable with, no one else can do that for them or even point in the right direction. For all i know she might have mental problems and thus can't operate with people. Not saying she does, mind you, i just don't know so giving advice seems moot.
