    Sometimes I'll get these confidence boosts out of nowhere. I'll be sitting on my couch or something and just start thinking, "I'm gonna just start going out and meeting people," or "This is it. We're totally getting a wing person, and we're totally gonna get dates and shit."

    Anyone else get those? For anything, doesn't have to be for dating or making friends.

    I love when this happens!
    Like you, I'll be sitting there and out of the blue I'd just get a huge boost in confidence like "You're looking good today!" or "Right, Today we're going to be as outgoing as possible". :grin:

    I do get those, but not from my thoughts. I would get a boost in my confidence for example if I do well in an exam, or do something right at work, or my boyfriend tells me I look good :eusa_danc

    Every day.

    I either keep tinkering around until it happens, or I make it happen. Often times, just interacting with folks, randomly, or on this forum contributes greatly to that.

    From time to time. Usually goes something like this "I'm gonna be more social today. *Logs onto Dragon age* Hello my friends."

    But on a more serious note, I do enjoy those boosts and they do improve upon my social ness in real life. To bad they don't happen more often.

    Well, a few days ago I learned my state's biggest newspaper had an Instagram account, and they selected one of my photos to feature on a local photography section. I am beyond happy. Also, I went to an arts district in my city and met an artist who shares gallery space with none other than my former high school art teacher!

    Usually when I get these it's in the wee hours of the morning and I can't do anything about it. I get a feeling I want to go somewhere social and meet new people because I feel amazing! great! unfortunately, it is 1:30am on a Tuesday morning. I always seem to figure out the meaning of life at 2am right before bed and forget what it was in the morning.
