Shyness Support Group

Shyness is a feeling of insecurity that certain people experience while being among others, talking with others, asking favors of others, etc. The initial cause of shyness can vary. Scientists have located some genetic data that supports the hypothesis that shyness is at least partially genetic.

I know where you're coming from, but it's ok to be shy! I've turned red many times in front of men and it doesn't get too much easier, but it's a great way for him to know that you like him ;) Even if it's painful. You're not messing up at all, you just have a hard time talking to someone you really like, so go easy on yourself! Does he know you like him?

the same thing would happen to me, well still does sometimes. when you start getting nervous, try to think of him as a chick friend and relax. dont overthink what he is doing, it will make you more nervous. whats the worst that could happen?

when i get nervous i develope this horrible stutter that i've pretty much grown out of except for those situations. So just be yourself and talk about what you know

he might be just as shy as you.. I use to have the same sort of problem as you so I have always been with aggressive women who are outgoing. I guess it provides a balance

I understand how you feel, the same thing happens to me. The more you put yourself out there, the easier it gets!

I don't really have any advice but i know exactly how you feel, it happens to me everyday. Eventually i just convince myself that i don't really like the person as an exucuse why I cant talk to them

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
