ok...so i have a big problem with being shy..
and i have no clue what to do with it..
every time i go somewhere,i need someone to hide behind that person ..
and i'm verry scared to talk
i really dont know how i must talk to people..
and every time someone says something to me
i end up not to talk to them or getting verry red
then they start to upset me,even the litlest things make me upset
and then i start to yell at them and mostly run away
thanks to that,i'm kind of scared to go outside
..help? >___<;;

i can so relate! i've always been very shy. the yelling thing i don't do though. that's sorta part of my shy thing. well, what do they say that upsets you? and if they upset you all the time, maybe it's not you. maybe it's their fault for upsetting you? and what do you mean you don't really know how you should talk to people?

omg I know exactly how you feel! I mean, I'm not as shy but I do have troubles talking to people. Like, when I first meet someone, its kind of awkward. Especially when I first meet a grown up, theyre all happy and smiling at me at giving a bunch of small talk trying to get to know me. Then I just stand there going 'yeah' 'no not really' and short answers like that.

Ugh. I'm shy too and rarely open my mouth unless I'm with friends. And even then I usually just listen. Now I'm trying to post more for stars, when I'd rather just lurk around the forums.

Haha, I would think that would pass by now. Just wait it out, and break your barrier little by little. I am shy and I don't talk to people at all. But I eventually talked to some people. e.e;

It's one thing to be completely shy, but to yell at people when they're just talking to you? oO'
May I ask why you're so shy to talk to other people - even to the point where it freaks you out?

Everyone is shy when it comes to talking to new people. Even the outgoing people. We're just self-conscious about making a good impression.
It's really not that bad. I mean, the worst they could do is laugh at you and call you names but no stranger would ever do that when you first meet.

it upsets me already the way they talk to me,like i'm sort of a freak,i dress verry different and act verry different,and already when people stare at me makes me wanting to hide.i cant talk in a normal way because when i want to talk,i get red,i dont dare to look at people when i talk,i say words olmost 2 times the same
@pinkii :: just already when people look at me a little bit makes me shy,it freaks me out when i need to stand before the class,and then just EVERYONE looks at you,then there comes no word out of my mouth...it happened a few times that i ren outside


and the reason why i start to shout,is that people just com to close to me,and that scares me a bit..>.<

i guess i see what you mean...well, maybe you should hang out with other people that WON'T talk to you like you're a freak. like, find somebody with the same interests? that will give you something to talk about. i talk sort of different than my friends, but not like that. i'll go from using these big words to using a bunch of slang in the same sentence. or i'll use these dorky phrases. my friend laughs at the way i talk, but i don't mind, she's just teasing. anyways, you should try to overcome the whole fear of public speach thing though. and try talking more often so you can get used to talking. that will probably help.
