Content

I totally feel you man, the inner me is a social creature that likes being interacted with but the outer me or who I portray to be is a shy and timid person and it sucks. I shy away from conversations because I don’t want to look a fool and stammer. I too can’t fully say my name without stammering/stuttering so I ended up abbreviating my name and it’s the name I now call myself during introductions.
