shy


Question Posted Tuesday November 29 2005, 8:54 pm

I need some advice. You see, I'm kind of shy. Actually, very shy. I'm not shy around my closest friends. But around other people, I am. How can learn to be myself more? I want to open up and not worry about what other people think of me. Can you please tell me how to do that? Thanks. Oh yeah, and please don't say "shyness can be good at times," because that's not really helping me. Thanks

Well, just...do it! Try not to worry about anything! You don't have to be CRAZY, but just talk to people more...become friends with them!! But remember this...You only live once! Who knows, you may find some new friends.

When you are talking to people you don't really know or talk to often, just pretend like you have known them forever. I am very shy too, especially around adults. I just pretend like they are a family friend and it helps talk to them.

I had that issue. I thought I was shy. I've since concluded that shyness doesn't exist. Instead of resigning yourself to shyness, pay attention to your inner monologue when you approach social situations. My brain would tell me that I'd say something stupid, or that this person doesn't want to talk to me.

It's so stupidly simple, confidence cures shyness. Yet, there isn't much more to it. If you need to talk to someone, you do.

Though. I can't say I WANT to approach people these days. I just don't care. Ha. I still keep to myself because most people are kind of not worth it.

i think shyness is a fase that everyone goes through at some point. i am shy but its wearing off. but i mean you just need to feel confident and proud of who you are and i mean it will come naturally once you feel comfterable around people you dont know as much. and i always think when i meet someone new, they know nothing about you so i mean you can basically act how you want them to think how you are. So say outgoing for instance just act happy and your feel bubbly already.
good luck!
