I lack people skills, as the people I know are the only people I can talk with confidence. I hate meeting new people a going to public places.... Once I start chating with somebody, I can make her/him friend very easily...

but I wait for other people to start or step up..I cant do that....I dont know how to make this thing better...... I am totally home grown adult and I was not even allowed to play with other kids....Just stayed home and now adult life (22) i spend most of my time indoors playing games or online....i think lower confidence has thus led to my kicking out of university, leaving my good paying job and not having a gf.

Um, you could do you what you said, start a conversation with you neighbors and well when you go to public places i say: Hows cares about whatever your worry ed about? i used to be the same thing, get you friends to go with you to start out with... if you don't have any friends, see somebody who looks like you could handle talking too for years, then he\she is a friend and just, make a mistake accidental bump into him\her. The girlfriend problem: You see a attractive girl do what i said! bump into her and make a conversation, soon enough shell be asking for you number!

Do tell yourself that you're just as good as anyone else in life and believe it. Do a lot of positive self talk and no negative. Don't be hard on yourself when you make a mistake. Forgive yourself and tell yourself that you're not the only person who has done this. Then pick yourself up and go on. Act confidently even when you aren't. Soon enough, you will believe it and naturally act confident. When meeting people and after asking how they are, you can chat about the weather, then about the atmosphere surrounding you.Do ask them questions about themselves as everyone likes to chat about themselves.
