shyness
Just thought this might be interestin to discuss. If you met me you wouldnt think it but Im actually quite shy, only my close friends would know this fact but now so do you.:xyxwave: I was terrible at school I had friends but I found it hard to speak in front of the class and what not it was excruciating. Nowadays I just blag it that Im supremely confident lol, it seems to work! Still cant do public speaking though without meds!

Oh and I hate going to places where theres noone I know!

I used to be horrific. I wouldn't look anyone in the eye I didn't know, or couldn't keep eye contact even with people I did know. I was unsure of myself, and didn't dare speak out or speak up.
Being in a group with new people was my worst nightmare. Now I'm the opposite. I like to meet new people and engage in conversation, and I can obviously keep eye contact now LOL. Obviously I don't just go up to strangers and speak to them (unless drunk, of course) - but I wouldn't class myself as shy these days, nor would my friends. |

I used to be really shy, and then from like year 10 I made more friends and now I'm really really confident haha.. i'll talk to anyone, and in my first communication&culture class at college everyone had to do a presentation about themselves and I was the only person who wasn't shaking haha.. I got an A :angel:
|
Yeh I think it gets better as you get older
|
Yeah, I mean I was pretty unpopular until about year 10, and then I got some more confidence for no reason I can put my finger on, and therefore started talking to more people, and making more friends which upped my confidence more and that carried on in a circle really. It's so funny, everyone hated me in year 9 and by year 11 I was one of the plastics hahahaha
|
lol
|
I think you start to care less what people think as you get older aswell
|
I used to be so shy, I still am but not as much
I really don't know why and it holds me back still |
some people just naturally are but I just pretend Im not and that helps if thats makes any sense! Im not that bad these days anyway
|
I'm not shy and never have been but it makes me sad knowing that some people aren't comfortable making eye contact with people or talking to certain people
|
i can be really shy when i first meet people and hate going to parties etc where i only know one or two people but once i know people i am far from shy
