Back in elementary school I once had a teacher almost convince me the term "making friends" was inappropriate; she thought it sounded too aggressive, like I was gonna go around grabbing people by the arm, look them dead in the eye and say "Be... my... friend!" like some kinda psycho. Looking back, I think this is how my social anxiety might have began. Thanks a lump, Mrs. Dunning!!!
