It's normal at your age, you think you are invincible, it's the hormones. It'll change one day.

Don't isolate yourself too much as then you become wary of others and untrusting. This can lead to a phobia all in itself, you are on the right track to becoming more confident in yourself so you can rely on yourself. Start small though, you will get discouraged if you start too big. Not sure what you are working on, maybe message back with some of those and I can see if I can help further.
Other than that you are on the right road with your mom knowing and in the loop is important as she will ALWAYS be your biggest support system to go to. When you are old enough you will gain a new independence as well, don't rush things too much - your mom still wants you, not a ghost of your former self.

You can always vent with me, sometimes it takes me awhile to read my email but right now I am home recovering from surgery so while at home I am answering questions here.

You know something? You are wise beyond your years. You are a lot like me - stick up for people and I get myself into more trouble than they were in before. In some ways I am confident and other ways I lack confidence - ex: I always put myself down, I'm not fat but I always think that I am and need to cover myself up also in no way anorexic as I love food and not fat just healthy but would love to look like a model (but wouldn't everyone?) besides other areas too. I teach self confidence to preschoolers (I'm a support worker for children with special needs) and others and it has been a tremendous tool for me and bringing my self esteem up. I like the diary you keep and make sure you keep your friend - I lost a good girl friend (was like a bad break up) and have found it hard to make girl friends after, I always find it easier to befriend guys as they are not as nasty as women - we are an awful species when we women want to be. My best friend is my hubby whom I've been together with over 12 years and married for just over 5 and a daughter who is 2.5, yes we waited a long time for our family and get married. Which is OK. Point is - be yourself always, you just need to be careful so that someone doesn't perceive you as naive and try to take advantage of you. Be on the alert always! You are a good girl with a smart head on your shoulders - be proud and stand tall.

Thanks a bunch, I am getting a lot better especially when you have support like I do.
Confidence is sexy. Sexy scares people. At the age of 13 you are intimidating to teens who want to be more like you. You are doing fine and will have a great life. Like I said, confidence at your age is rare - make smart choices!

You know, it may take people awhile to get to know you as it may be hard to break that barrier to get in, but once your in it's hard to break your friendship (am I correct?). You sound like a loyal friend with honesty, another rarity for someone your age. You just sound so much like me it's scary and crazy. Go girl! I do believe that every female strives to achieve sexiness in all we do, doesn't matter if you are fat or a tomboy every female wants this. Remember, sexiness is also in the eye of the beholder.
