Heh, I'm pretty much the opposite. Or, at least, I was when I was not much older than you. When I was thirteen, I joined my first forums, and for a while I was just as shy and introverted as I was in real life, but I quickly realised that that wasn't helping, so I decided to be more social. It took me quite a while for real life to catch up to that, lol. I'm sixteen now and I still don't quite think I've completely caught up yet. :P
