Hey I’m really shy too and get bothered for it a lot. Don’t worry! Yeah we should probably be more assertive but don’t push yourself. All that matters is your comfort/happiness and I’m sure your mom agrees. :)

Thank you. I’m so happy that someone said this. I wouldn’t be as upset if my mom hadn’t said that. I love her to the ends of the earth. She means so much to me and I just want her to approve of me. I know I should be, but it’s really hard to be more assertive, but I’m going to try. Thank you so much, I needed this.
