Question Posted Sunday October 5 2008, 3:03 pm

16/f
i didn't really know what category to put this under, since it kinda fits with everything. but anyways, this is a really weird problem but i really need help because it's annoying the crap out of me. okay so, basically i'm like really shy people. i mean i'm mostly loud around my friends and people i know well, but sometimes it doesn't work that way. sometimes i'm really loud around people i barely know that i just met. like it depends on my mood i guess. but some people think i'm really shy. like especially because at school i never really raise my hand in class because i'm always really tired and i hate school so my attitude is just like blahh. but a lot of times when people hang with me outside of school they're like wow you're totally different than i thought you were. but yeah like i need help especially talking to guys that i just meet. like i know how to hold a conversation and stuff i just don't really know what to say so they'll like know i'm interested in hooking up or something. i was talking about this with my friend yesterday and we decided that guys always like come to me. like i've never had a problem with getting a boyfriend, having guys want to hook up with me, etc. but i've also never like actually tried to get a guy to like me. i just kinda go with whatever's there. i'm not trying to sound cocky or anything but there's like always a guy that likes me. i want to actually like work for something though if that makes any sense. like flirt a lot to get him to like me. because once i know a guy likes me i like flirt with him a lot. that's like my problem. i don't know how to explain this.. i just want people to stop thinking i'm so shy! but like sometimes i'm around people and i just don't know what to say. i'm not like afraid of sounding stupid i'm just like afraid of people judging me or something. i don't know i just need help coming out of my shell. any tips?

I'm exactly the same!! And it used to bother me when people said I was shy but I really don't mind now bcos i'm happy not to be seen as "the loud one" but when people get a chance to know me they can see there is a lot more to me.

I don't really know how you can make yourself seem less shy, because that's just who you are when you meet new people. I guess the best advice is to smile a lot, & strike a conversation with new people before they speak to you :)
