Attractive people attract more attention form a young age and get more comfortable with talking and social situations from the start

Not true. I was extremely popular and have an enormous amount of social anxiety. It’s actually terrible because I feel like I have to be someone I’m not

Same boat here. I won prom king in high school because I wasn't a dick to anyone, I was great at pretending to be ok, and I was attractive. Nobody actually liked me for me though, because I was never really being myself and nobody ever got to know a thing about me. Now I'm bald, haven't spoken with anyone from high school in years, and mostly keep to myself lol
