I probably just need to get over myself, but when a certain person is around it changes the dynamic of the group and I feel left out. Anyone else ever get that vibe? Just about friends, not dating related.

Like the person doesn't like you? Or you don't like them? Or they are an attention whore? Or they fill the same "role" in the group that you usually fill and you feel unnecessary?

Ugh; pretty much everyone I'm great one on one or in a small group, but I'm so introverted, I can't handle large groups--even if I love everyone in the group.

You are important and you matter. Your feelings matter. Your voice matters. Your story matters. Your life matters. Always.
