I sort of think it maybe a combination of lack of social skills, a fear to take a lead in the conversation and projecting onto others my own fears.
I always felt in a second place, to say the least. :-) It’s very rare for me to take the lead of a conversation. The few times I tried it, I saw how people struggle to keep their attention to what I’m saying.
On the other side, I feel bad and unfair to give them a wrong impression. Bc I’m not a person who likes sharing with whoever. I became pretty selective. And only time and knowing the other person little by little, could make me feel comfortable and want to share.
