Brandon didn't like being shy, but he didn't know what to do about his feelings. It wasn't that Brandon didn't like people, because he did. But he always felt so awkward and unsure around strangers that he found it hard to talk to someone he didn't know. His palms would start to sweat, and he could feel his face getting hotter and hotter. The more he thought about the way he was feeling, the harder it was for Brandon to control himself.
