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.

Ohhhhhh, I know how angry I got when people pick on me for being the quiet girl. Very recently, I decided to step back and see them in their ignorance and their own insecurities- and not hate them. You know, some people have said I intimidate THEM! Ha! I've become much more accepting of others, and you know what?! People are now much more accepting of me! I don't cower away when they throw me in the spotlight, I just nicely throw it back on them :) and tell people "Hey that just makes me feel bad when to ask me why I am the way I am," or something along that line and why they would say something like that. Note: this doesn't always go well with 10 year old school bullies and generally nasty people, but hey, it usually works for me- catches the other person without being mean back and makes me feel good about myself for speaking up.

Im IN 7th grade and im really shy. To make things worse i have the most popular girl in my class and so everyone just wants to talk and be with her. Even the boys. i really like to look at people and see them for who they are and i like to help people with their problems but i get a bit teased aswell. still people have their own insecurities.

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...
