The bold and the bashful

The bold and the bashful

This was a very interesting topic and I liked that I was able to learn plenty of vocabulary with it, I used to consider myself as a bashful person due to the fact that I was always afraid of talking to people and it was hard for me to build relationships, at the school I was considered as an aloof person because I was always trying to avoid people and I never participated on the class, I don’t know why or when I started this behavior but I really wanted to stop doing that because it was causing me a lot of trouble and my personal life was getting affected. I had a friend who was very shy and introverted as well and she was always trying to do the same thing that I used to because she did not   like talking to people either, I remember that one day we decided to change that mindset and started to act as regular teenagers who are very talkative and extroverted but we got too much trouble, after that day I decided to just be myself and as I was growing up I realized that I was changing my behavior myself.

   

In my opinion I think that there are many reasons for a person to be shy, one of them is the way they were taught at home, here in the Dominican Republic  I remember that parents were very strict with the kids and the kids we were not allow to do certain things that the ones from nowadays do. I´ve noticed that this generation is more extroverted, bold, and friendly and less shy.
