One thing I love about life is the abundance of imperfections. Without them, there would be no need for improvement or growth.
In the last couple days, dealing with tennis patrons, classmates, and friends, I have realized that I am not an interesting being.
How in the world do I make friends?
Initially:
I am noticeably timid and slow to respond.
Starting and keeping conversation is not a strength of mine. [I lack structure and tend to lose other's attention.]
My knowledge is limited and irrelevant.
Eventually:
I replace my shyness with openness that becomes overwhelming.
The struggle with conversation continues and is paired with stumbling over unorganized thoughts.
I am completely weird.
I don't have much to bring to the table.
- I love to listen, but strongly dislike talking.
- I find ways out of responding to issues or situations. [Not responding can be taken as a response.]
As much as I say I like people, I don't seem to interact well with them.
I think there's a lack of excitement, or an excessive amount of dullness in my personality.
Now that I've been able to narrow it down...

I need you to call me. I disagree with a lot of this and don't want you down on yourself. But I also think that there is more to this thought process than meets the eye. I see so much more in you than this and wish you could see yourself with my eyes. I love you!
You're ridiculous. Lol.
You are nowhere near dull or slow. Hahah. You goof. You are weird, but you have an incredible amount to bring to the table. I don't know if you know this, but you're kind of the best friend I've ever had. And I've had about 32. You know this. Haha. So if that's not saying something, I don't know what is.
Sometimes, all people need is someone to listen, and you bring that along with much more. Perhaps you don't realize, but you've been there for me in every situation [good or bad] for the past 6 years now. You have been a source of strength for me, and I can honestly say that I would not be where I am today without you.
I love you con todo mi corazon. You're my best friend in the entire world, and I wouldn't have it any other way. <3
