Thing is she is very popular in school and has tons of friends. She's never had a problem making friends, and is very social if she's in a situation where she's comfortable. I was kind of the same way in that I had a bunch of friends, but she is way more outgoing than I ever was. But if either one of us get in a social situation we're not comfortable with, we clam up and want to get out of that situation ASAP.
You both sound "normal" to me. There are some social situations I'd pay to get out of and others that I thoroughly enjoy. Maybe you're overreacting?

Maybe I am for her, but I was actually diagnosed with it. I kind of over-simplified the situation in what you quoted. It's basically an overwhelming, sometimes crippling feeling when placed in certain situations. It goes beyond just being uncomfortable. It's hard to explain, and if I did it would almost just sound like I'm being a pussy.
