I have been VERY shy my entire life. I'm always in the distance of a gathering. when everyone laughs I just laugh to myself and no one can hear me. It's made it very hard to meet new people and make relationships.
What I find most interesting about my own shyness though is that it is usually based around the people I actually hang out with. My shyness tends to attract other strange people, which I like, but the social energy is weak to begin with.
If I somehow find my way into a group of people who are rowdy and like to party though I am much more open and expressive.
It's funny. Most of the time I thought my shyness was based around how well I knew the group. But I have known my best friends for years now and I'm still quiet as a mouse around them. But around my work buddies I am loud and outgoing and eager to take on the world.
Anyway, about the general populous. Shy people are usaully very nice people who enjoy other peoples happiness more than their own. They aren't better or worse than a normal person they just find different ways to enjoy the moment.
And if you hate being shy like I hate it, I have found several things that help me open up like a social butterfly. Music everyone can jam to, Drinking, funny stories and jokes, party games, and for me, a nice relaxing smoke.
What do you think about quiet/shy people?
