Super shy?
Answer:
Hmmm...seriously, I was very shy when I was very young, I am in high school, I am still kinda shy. But I am a defensive shy person. Meaning that I won't talk often, but will stick up for myself when people take advantage of me. I think it might of came from my 7 years of Karate.
just do what you just did.ask lots of questions that people can answer so you can get to know them.i dont see many shy people write this much.doesnt sound too shy to me
Be comfortable with yourself, and laugh sometimes, be silly. There is no need to be serious all the time.
I have the same question. Overall, I try and be outgoing. You should keep your listening skills, because those are helpful, but for those people who can take advantage of you, fight back! Tell them that you can't be controlled, because it's your life and you can live it the way you want to! Don't be afraid, the world's not going to end if you try and strike a conversation, or if you try and make friends with people. Compliment people on their clothing, that always works for me. Enter a conversation with the people you want to become friends with. Make your voice louder. They're just people, and you're only a person, too, so they won't blame you for anything. It's not like you're some monster! In the end, people will want to know you more!
Good luck!
Believe in yourself. Think of everyone as the same as you are: everyone has their bit of insecurities, too. Try to have positive thoughts of other people. In return, you will get back a good vibe from your environment.
If you have a religion, pray and/or talk to God.
I can relate to your situation. Wow. The person who said she's never seen a shy person type this much doesn't know the first thing about a shy person... LoL. I can type more than the number of words that I utter!
Take care. :)
Keep it up, k? You'll make it.
Change your normal routine start being more aggressive towards conversation with people. Say what you feel whatever on your mind , people who are shy miss out on a lot of things in life. You don't have to be the life of the party but do something wild that you were to scared or shy to do. See what your friends reactions will be. By way the Adam Sandler was a shy person growing up and look where he is at now.
I Wuz shy when I first went to school I didn't know anybody. Sometimes I'm still shy but I just don't know it
Omgosh ur just like me--except that im not really shy just QUIET...though ppl think IM BOTH!!
HIGH FIVE!
Its OK to b shy, everyones unique and idk why but i love the word innocence and shy sounds like dat to me :]
I LOVE BOOKS!
i have at least 5 in my bookbag when i go to school unless i forgot my bookbag!
is it ordinary to find a talker, but rare to find a listener
ppl who torment others are just insecure about themselves
ppl who are you're true blue friends like you as you not for anything you own or how rich you are!
i have this friend (shes not really one and lets say her name starts with a R) i helped her every time she needed help, she only once said a thank you and she never talked to me in class, only when she needed help and shes been talking about me behind my back but im still nice to her!
whenever i need help, she shrugs and makes excuses, i just figured out that she was just using me( i know thats obvious )
ppl are different and that's cool, cause theres not another you in the world =]
and i think that to overcome shyness you just act like yourself--just as you act around your clique of five friends--ppl will just like you for who you are...
best of luck!

oo yea srry for ma bad grammar, i feel lazy with the keyboard! :)
just dont talk about school!
LOL
heres a quote i heard
"people who talk about ideas are brilliant, epople who talk about moments are average, and people who talk about people are stupid (i know i talked about R but that was just a story...)
this means that ppl who actually talk about ways to help the environment and help can help improve the world, ppl who talk about momennts are average-smart, because it informs but ppl who just talk aobut others are wasting their time (and lives), i mean would it make that person any smarter??
ex:
meanie: Ugg, look how stupid she is!
so would that make meanie any smarter?
LOL...iamtypingtoomuch
and always know there are always shy ppl!!
believe in urself cause ur a star!
Sorry, but I have to get this first paragraph out just because . . .First, I want to say that you are NOT super-shy if you have friends. In fact, you are just a little shy/reserved. Super-shy people have NO friends AT ALL and any friend that they did have, probably for only a few months, dropped them because they were boring because they were shy. They are reclusive, rejecting any contact, even when the people REALLY want to talk with them, and if someone talks to them, the discourse initiator gets bored because the shy person only responds to questions and the responses aren't even stimulating. The word "clique" isn't even in their vocabulary. Okay. I'm done.
I think you should find a place in your town where they practice interviewing skills. Those can be found at colleges or you can ask a learning center or look online. They may videotape you and then give you constructive criticism based on your demeanor. It can be very helpful for correcting faults. And these people are only there to help; you can ask any question--which is good because you can have normal conversation.
If you see something in that book that is even remotely confusing, ask someone about it. And don't sit in the back--sit with the crowd! The crowd is safe. And they know you want to be with people, even if you don't say anything.
You've got to hang out with those friends. Ask if you guys can go to a party and then say they'll have to sort of introduce you to people that they talk to since you are quiet and all. The new people you meet at the party can rope you into conversation. Also, a very casual environment is good.
If you can, go to a comedy club! You'll be so loosened up. Make sure to do these things in at least groups of 4. After a while, groups of 3 is alright, but being shy will make you feel a 3rd wheel and you won't talk a lot.
Get a facebook and tell the truth on the categories and make your profile public! Maybe people will friend you!
You may never overcome your shyness. No matter what, it may be how you always are. But, you should always try! In this world, shyness is a drawback, especially after you turn 20, when you need interships and jobs.
