Why is my confidence growing again?!
Question: A couple of years ago my best friend (who was a girl) left states and I never talked to her again. I have felt sad thinking about her since. Over the years I got worse and worse and was almost going EMO at school well maybe not that far but I felt really bad because I didnt have any confidence to talk to people anymore. But recently a friend of mine showed me a picture of her and she was beautiful and reminded me again of her. I contacted her and she was surprised but fine talking after 4 years. The next day in school although not immediately I began to notice my confidence build up and by the end of the time I was back on my game again. One of my friends even commented on this and said where you been all these years and I just laughed.
Do you think there is some connection between us im not saying in a relationship way cause I dont see her that way but i feel our friendship builds happiness and confidence together. WOW THAT SOUNDED LAME!

Well, I don't think I need to see a picture of someone who obviously has such a positive affect on you! I think it is great that you are confident again! Obviously, you feel connected to her in some way. Perhaps you have a destiny of friendship that will be around for a long time. I have found my life has come full circle several times with three friends that I have known for a decade. We can go years without seeing each other, but somehow, it seems, we always walk back into each others lives.
Maybe some depression and or separation anxiety, both of which can effect self esteem.
Good luck! Bottom line ...stay connected..sounds like she is good for you.
