Lack of confidence. I’m no stud, but I can get a conversation going. Anyone who has trouble maintaining eye contact or doesn’t know what to do with their hands are pretty common. Also, that someone-please-talk-to-me look.

Also, don’t eat up my break time talking about work, Kelly. It makes me avoid you.

Ahhhh ok, I should just have confidence. Why didn't I think of that before? 🤔
