I Am Socially Awkward

I’m not much of a talker, I’ll listen and I’ll ask about others but I really dread talking about myself.
Sometimes I feel like others are just so turned off by my conversation, it’s as if they tune out whenever I begin to speak and I’d rather not feel insignificant or regrettable about what I’ve said.

It’s not that I enjoyed talking very much to begin with but it’s all I can think about lately. It’s very discouraging when I see others puzzled by what I talk about.
I’m bothered. I didn’t care so much about what others thought before, but being sociable and “interesting” seems to bring a huge advantage to those who do it without thought.
I don’t know why it’s so difficult for me. I try to throw myself out there, but I just don’t feel it in me.

But I hate being shy so much. People assume I’m a bitch, and they’re not totally wrong but I just suck so bad at socializing.

Those who know me say I don’t talk enough to allow others to get to know me, but I’m just so awkward. I wouldn’t want to talk to me either.
