Im really shy. I have no really close friends and making new ones or improving relationships is hard for me. I dont know why i am shy cause i dont think im ugly or anything, i actually think i look great. Im a girl. I have nothing to be ashamed of when talking to people and im not scared of embarrasing myself but i absolutely cant make eye contact with anyone and when i try to talk, either nothing comes out or my voice comes out quiet, cracked and awkward sounding. I really want to talk to people. IIN?

    I was the same in highschool so its definately something i can relate to.I'd say it's probably more of a fear of rejection thing more than anything else or possibly feeling like you have nothing in common with the people around you.I'd say trying to change you're environment by doing different stuff like joining a bookclub could be helpful as it would give you a chance to meet other introverted people.Talking to other people online too might help you to figure out how you should hold conversations with other people

    Talk to yourself in the mirror for practice?...look you are always going to have this anxiety if you dont socialise even worse it's going to build up. So do yourself a big favour muster some courage,take a leap of faith and get out there. Believe me when i say rejection is overated just stop giving a shit and u will do fine haha

    You should go to the gym (or another place) and do yoga or something similar. You will gain much self-confidence if you exercise on a regular basis I think. Bicycling is a fun and worthwhile exercise too.
