I used to find it impossibly hard to go up to anyone when i was out and just spark up a conversation.

I found some help and it's pretty much cleared most of my shyness up. It required a lot of willpower and a why the hell not attitude but i finally managed it =)

I would tell all of you peeps still suffereing the shy curse about where i got help but i dunno if thats classed as advertising and not allowed or something lol. Feel free to ask though if its all cool with the forums

"Spellcheck stick"? A spellcheck is a crutch and you should be able to make coherent posts without one. Where did I even say no one loves me? You need to check your facts before making silly assumptions.

His post was coherant enough for everyone else; it's only you and your elitist snobbery-or perhaps your mental deficits-then can't seem to overcome what is really a very simple thing to do.

And how laughable. You criticise me for saying that no-one loved you when you did the same thing not a few moments ago? Your arrogance and hypocrisy are absolutely sickening.

Poor show. You meant to say "coherent", I mean, I even put that word in the post above, but you still got it wrong, I hope you're embarrassed.

Besides, he was the one that said no one loved him, I was merely trying to give him an explanation as to why and everyone seems to have jumped down my throat for a little constructive advice. No one except you, however, claimed that no one loves me. (A claim which is patently untrue for your information)

I was shy before then one year I figure screw it I'm going to say anything on mind for on. Cut to year after and nearly lost all of my friends or got my ass kicked for almost anything I said. Now I just keep my mouth shut... Mostly.

So women a mostly yeah figures

As for the thing I quoted ummm I wouldn't call that shy maybe just thinking before saying something I always do that it makes for a good diplomat
There is even a saying about that at least in my language:''measure 3 times before cutting'' or ''3 times measure 1 time cut'' something like that

I've missed on on a handful of women due to being timid.

Example:

I had a client while working as a massage therapist from the UK(I love in Montreal)that had recently moved here, she ended up talking quite a bit through the session (She was happy she could speak to me because everyone else only spoke french). Anyways when I got outside to leave she was there unlocking her bike and told me I should do Martial Arts because I'd be good at it, I responded saying I do Martial Arts. She then mentioned she does Thai massage and although she doesn't have any massage table at her place we could use mats on the floor to exchange massage. I said sure that sounds great and walked off.

I didn't take a name, didn't take a number, didn't take an address. Even while walking away I was wondering, WTF AM I DOING, TURN BACK YOU IDIOT, but I didn't. The day still haunts me, I was 21 at the time and she must've been in her late 20's early 30's, very well maintained >.<

Being incredibly shy and afraid of almost all human interaction has ruined my sex life, and hasn't done any wonders for my weight either.

I don't think im that shy to be honest. Over the past few years I've gathered the confidence to 'Just Do It'. (no Nike pun intended)

If I shy away from doing it, I keep thinking about it in my head and somehow force myself into doing it. Train yourself the same way I do!

I'm not shy, but there are certainly situations where I have "chickened out" from doing something I really wanted to do, and thus robbed myself of an experience that may or may not would have have proved to be quite pleasant.
You never know ahead of time, but as a wise man once said, "if you never shoot, you'll always miss".

This, I've never been a shy person. In fact, I'm loud and impulsive but not in an obnoxious way. Still, I have chickened out from doing things like missing lectures to go on a road trip. Oh no, wait, did that once. But I missed out on it a second time 'cause I was trying to be responsible but maturity is a *****
It's happened a few times with girls, never sucking up the courage to just ask them out, but that's happened to everyone, right?

And he's off with the elitist mindset again. If I was embarrassed about being corrected by you I'd back-off a little. Just shows you up all the more for being arrogant.

And point out where he said that, please.

Less friends than I could have.
Low self esteem
Horrible chances with finding someone to love.
Never going for opertunaties that would benefit me.

The list goes on.

Hmm...nope, it's just you being ignorant again. You have the nerve to call me out on mis-quotes when you yourself did it. Tut tut. He said 'horrible chances of finding someone to love.' Not that no-one would love him. Hope you feel embarrassed, as you have shown yourself up to be nothing but a childish little fool.

The implication of "Horrible chances with finding someone to love.", is that as of yet, no one does, it's a relatively simple logical assumption, as opposed to you just making it up out of thin air.

If we're looking at this rationally, you're the one that's been throwing insults around left right and center whereas I've been calmly responding in a polite manner, so I think you might want to improve your manners before calling me out again. Anyway, if you're going to insult me like the intellectual giant that you're proving to be, please try and be a little more original.

I have a hard time speaking to people I don't know since I'm a bit shy. I'm even worse off if I think the person I'm talking to is cute.
