Dear Bertha,
I recently moved to a new city, which means new friends and a new school. I'm nervous because I'm a shy person, and I don't mix with people easily. I'm scared that I won't make any friends here. Please help.

Sincerely,
Shy Guy

Dear Shy Guy,
Change is an inevitable part of life. It's OK to be nervous in a new environment, but don't let it affect your confidence. Be confident about who you are. How can you expect others to like you if you don't like yourself? Your shyness may cause problems in communicating with people, but you need to take the initiative to approach them. When you meet someone new, present yourself with confidence. It will be a little difficult at first, but you will eventually get the hang of it.

All the best!
Bertha
