This has been a problem my whole life. Its not that I don't want to be around people, Its just that when I am, I have like absolutley nothing to say. I'll try and get involved in a conversation but when i do I say the most idiotic things you wouldn't believe.
any suggestions?
i no how u feel, i am very shy myself, and find it hard to just come out and jump in a conversation without saying something stupid by accident
Google "how to be socially successful" or "how to be more social". Either can help a lot
Instead of trying to think of things to say, ask people about stuff they're interested in, most people love to talk about themselves, I don't so I can kinda sympathize with you.
I sometimes feel shy but it can help acting a bit crazy or eccentric just to help myself come out of my shell. Some people just don't like it or don't get it but they're normally the kind of people I wouldn't really like very much anyway. Some people don't like it at first but next time you meet them don't do whatever it was that annoyed them last time and you might find you can get along with them. I didn't get on with some of my best friends the first time I met them.
Maybe you just haven't found a decent bunch of people or person that you can relate to. Try to be more open about things and listen to what they have to say. I'm like this too sometimes but too much alone time just isn't healthy.
This is easy. Get high once when your around other people (at a party or something). If you don't like it, thats cool. But one things for damn sure, you won't be the quiet one that night.
i used to be unbelievably shy!! just surround yourself with people who know you for who you are and your confidence will gradually build up. Also maybe try taking up a sport. sometimes it can really bring you out of your shell!! helps me alot.
i think its normal. but its better if you can get along with people... you should attend workshops. lol i had the same problem before, im totally shy to start or involve myself into conversations, i attended a modelling workshop and i met a lot of people.. i gained my self confidence. :] and now, i work as a travel agent and yeah, i talk a lot. lol
i'v had that same problem every since i moved schools.
i'm totaly fine with everyone i knew before the move its jst the new people.
but its takes time and u need to find things u hav in common with these people.
find some more things out about yourself too =D
That is absolutely normal in my opinion. There are times when I'm around people I don't know that well, and I just sorta stay in the background. But being shy is very normal.
Same here, ^^ sometimes I say something and everyone just stares at me and the only thing you hear is silence....lol
You hav to get people who hav common interests with u, then it is much easier to talk, and then move on to other topics.
Don't get embarrassed ever when you think you said something wrong! Just laugh it off. Talk about anything you want, don't stick to the same old boring stuff like the weather, it's no good.
