Dear Miranda,
I’m really lonely. I’ve been having lots of (1) DISAGREEMENTS and
(2) ARGUEMENTS with my parents recently and I don’t have anyone
to talk to. I don’t have any close (3) RELATIONSHIP with anyone my
own age as I don’t have the (4) CONFIDENCE to make friends
easily. You see, I’m really shy. I know how important (5) FRIENDSHIP
is, but what can you do when you don’t have any friends?
Do you have any (6) SUGGESTIONS as to what I could do? I thought
that one (7) POSSIBILITY might be to start wearing trendier clothes.
Do you think if I change my (8) APPEARANCE it will make a big
(9) DIFFERENCE? Please help! Everyone thinks I’m happy but I’m
not. And I can’t keep up the (10) PRETENTOIN much longer.
