I'm not a girly girl, either. I wouldn't be happy if I tried to be.
Just be yourself. You don't have to be all flirty and crazy to open up. Don't allow yourself to feel awkward, be proud of who you are, because it is your awkward feelings that keep you from opening up.
Pound it into your head that you are you, and being you is great. Everyone else can take it or leave it.

Next time you're with a guy, don't be slutty and think that hanging all over him is going to get you the same results. Just plan your moves, think about how much you can smile or laugh or be playful or be touchy. It's all about thinking what your next move can be. Don't be all out there and obvious, because then he'll know you're insecure about it. Just give a little and take some back, gradually flirt. And if your with a usual group of guys, wear A LITTLE bit of makeup and fix your hair up, so they notice a difference of appearance and a new attitude. Although it might feel awkward at first, once the conversation is flowing it becomes easier. Just make sure you don't overdo it. That applies to the makeup and the flirting. You don't want to put on a false front, you just want to change it up a bit so they notice. [ claireblue6's advice column | Ask claireblue6 A Question ]
