It's dance related, but don't worry, I won't say any fancy-dancy talk to confuse you:
I have dance Tuesdays and Thursdays, and I didn't go to dance on Tuesday because on Monday while I was practicing, I hurt my ankle, and it still hurt on Tuesday, so I decided to not go because my ankle hurt. And then today, my ankle was feeling a lot better, but I started getting sharp pains in my stomach, so I didn't go today either. And so then my parents decided to talk to me about this whole not wanting to go to dance because I didn't go on Tuesday last week, or Thursday the week before. And it's kinda true that I haven't been wanting to go to dance the past couple of weeks and I think it's because we're done with shows, so we start working on our solo steps, which I'm not very good at in my hard shoe steps. And I also think it's because I moved up the levels really fast. And I mean really fast. Normally, a person is in Advanced Beginner for a year, while I was in it for a month. Normally, a person is in Novice for five years, and I was in it for 10 months. So I'm in Prizewinner now, and there is only one class above, which is Champion. So, all the other dancers have had time to practice these little moves and execute them perfectly while I am struggling with them. And I think it also might be because I get embarrassed to do y steps in front of the whole class because I'm not as good as them. Sure, I'm probably more flexible than them, but that only gets you so far. And so then my parents talked to me about quitting, and I don't know what to do. I kinda wanna stop, but then again I don't because I've made friends there and I don't have any friends at school, so I'll be alone again. And my mom got me new hard shoes a couple months ago, which are really expensive. And I don't want to disappoint my teachers. I just don't want to let them down. My mom told me that I should be doing it for me and not what other people think, but I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to stop thinking about what other people would feel like. I can't help it. So, I guess I need some advice, and no, I do not care if this belongs in the psychology forum. -

Why are you even posting?
I've tried that and it sadly did not work :\. Well, they gave me really good advice on how to break in my hard shoes, and that worked, but that's about it.
