Tell Me I'm Worth It

One time, when my friend was asked to "hang out" with a guy, she asked me to come with them. Why? I tend to help people out of awkward situations by starting conversations because that's what I do. I'm a conversation starter, whether I say "You're weird." or "I like your hair.", I always tend to make something out of one sentence. I am a very open person but today, I don't want to be so open.

Every conversation I have ever had, most of the time, has been started by me. The talks I have with my friends on the phone were all because I called them first. My AIM chats, I say hi first. On Myspace, Facebook, etc., I always start first.

For once though, I want to be the second person to be in the conversation. I want to be talked to for once. I want someone to come to me. I don't want to be the ice breaker. I show them that I want to talk to them. I show them that they are worth going up to and talking to, even if I hardly know them. For today, just one day, I want to see if I'm worth it. Am I? Do my best friends actually want to talk to me or am I just there?
