I can't believe this is even problem...

Apparently not talking about myself and stuff is ruining my relationships now...it's just that I feel so self-indulgent when talking about myself or what I want and I get really anxious if the person I am talking to thinks that I'm really self indulgent. Aside from that, whenever I did talk about myself or what I wanted, people seemed so uninterested that I just stopped. And now I find that they want me to but hEY YOU COULD HAVE SHOWN [i]SOME[/i] INTEREST EARLIER. It's so frustrating

That is a tough one...I was with a guy for a very long time who never cared what I did or said. I kind of got used to that, so now it's hard for me to open up. It feels weird when someone seems like they care now. 馃し馃徏

It's pretty weird, alright. Of course, you got taught very early not to talk about yourself (as so many of us have been taught), which makes it tough: and some people are assholes who dont want you to talk about anything but them.

And of course a lot of people (guys mostly, I think) are taught that it's weak & 'feminine' to show too much interest in a girl, it doesnt fit the mould of the strong, silent hero type :(

But ... you've got a lot inside, worth sharing, worth knowing: if you wind up around people who still dont want to listen, they aren't your friends, just acquaintances. Friends will want to hear, to learn - just like you do, about them.
