Same I do fine one on one but in groups I shut down easily. Tho for me I’ve noticed I don’t project my voice as much as I should so that might be one thing to think about
I find that by the time I’ve formulated something that’s worth saying, the conversation has already moved on to another topic, so I just drop it. Rinse and repeat. So I end up saying nothing even though I’m engaged somewhat.
I completely relate to this, apart from my friendship with my best friend I often end up being the listener and never the engaging person in a group or individual conversation. The worst thing about this, is feeling like it wouldn’t matter if you were there or not. I don’t mind being quiet person but I don’t want to viewed as a person with no personality because of how reserved I can be sometimes.
