This may sound kind of on the stupid side, but sorry!
I'm very shy. I'm so shy that I don't even want to get up to go turn in my paper because people stare at me. I don't even raise my hand to answer questions in class because I'm scared that I will get the wrong answer and people will make fun of me. If a person is shy (like me), are they always going to be shy for their whole life or do you eventually stop being shy? If so, how?

you really shouldnt be so shy
theres no point to it
what do you get by being the one thats always quiiet?
the one that no one really knows?
just stop caring about what other people think and dont be afaid to be wrong that way ull never learn anything
i suggest to open up more socially
u wont be that way for the rest for your whole life unless you choose to thats totally up to you
i guess what im trying to say is open up to people more and it will make life and school alot easier and more fun and interesting
*HOPE i helped yo !

if your shy, you have to do something to break out of your shell. join a club or a team. do something fun. show off the side that wants to come out but cant. people will love you for the person you are not the person you hide.

Hey,
Take it from granny, people don't always stay shy...the older you get the more that you see that most people have a lot of the same thoughts and fears...the more that you see that people are alike in as many ways as they are different..your little quarks don't seem like suck a big deal...and the funny thing is, if you decide not to be shy...people will not see you that way...a lot of the way people see you is how you see yourself...so if you act bold...they will think you are....

you stop being shy once you decide, "hey, i'm going to quit being such an introvert." believe it or not, people actually don't care that much about you. i don't mean that in an ugly way at all, but people aren't staring at you, or thinking or you in a bad way just because you get up to turn your paper in. it's like, a lot of people worry about repeating their outfits so other people won't think they're style-challenged, but seriously, nobody actually cares about other people. i quit being shy once i joined the yearbook staff because i had to go take pictures of and talk to random people. that was last year, and now i'm editor of the yearbook and i basically teach a class. learn to laugh at yourself. if you do something stupid during a presentation, or say the wrong answer, it doesn't matter. nobody will remember in five minutes if you laugh at yourself. but if you get all pissed off and embarrassed, you're just hurting yourself. if i were you, i would join some clubs or something. meet some new people. hell, even just go sit with some new people at lunch. start raising your hand to answer questions, and please always turn your papers in. good luck :)

People, dispite what you may think, don't actually care that much about you. They don't stare at you, you're just being paranoid. You need to learn to be more open and expressive. Take an acting class!

Believe me, I'm the same way. I turn red in the face during presentations and some stumble with my words and I'm sitting there looking down. You probably ARE going to be shy, but realize this: everyone else is going to be shy right along with you. You don't think people are sitting next to you going,"I don't want to raise my hand. Don't call on me, don't call on me!" "AGH PRESENTATIONS?!" People are just as nervous as you are and everybody else in the class understands that so if they DO laugh at you, just laugh along with them and it'll all be fine cause right after they laugh at you, you'll probably wind up doing the same thing after they messed up on theirs. Just learn to take deep breaths and relax yourself and just focus on something and remember everybody's like you and it's okay to raise your hand and be wrong. At least you're making an effort more than the kids who sit there and slum down in their chairs hoping not to be called on.
I hope I helped.
