@ Yield, Interesting reply about the public speaking. A few years ago I had to speak in public and the room started spinning I was so nervous! I think I would be fine now,but maybe joining something like what you suggested could help someone on many levels.

Really? Were you able to finally speak? :p. How did it go? I know the feeling of being nervous. Joining Toastmasters not only helps with shyness, but with improving self-confidence and being a better [public] speaker - which's always a handy skill to have. It's also great to join because you're in a room with others who're trying to achieve the same thing, so it's a supportive environment and there's no pressure. You should look into joining too, if it would help you out.

Nothing wrong with being shy. To overcome shyness, you have to know yourself more.

gst101: i am a very shy person. I am ok with so many ladies but those are the ones i feel nothing for except the love i have for every other person. When i see a pretty lady, my heart melts immediately. What i feel is so huge that my ego is crushed under its weight. When i pull myself together and say 'hello' i wouldnt be able to carry on becos i immediately become empty of words. I become like a fool. The last experience was the most embarrasing of all. I hate it so much! I wish i had other peoples heart. I see myself loosing out on beautiful experiences all becos of this 'shy' thaing. I hate my character! Some one pls help.

It is a matter of time and it takes some critical decision in you. In my case, I was abused growing up and had fear for ladies although I used to like them in my heart but since I challenged the man God created me to be, I have started overcoming those problems. Now I feel free to talk to ladies maybe because I am now a graduate and that makes me feel cool with myself. Concerning sex, it is a matter of time to me because my major fears on that used to be my being abused as a young boy, my penile size, my high sugar intake and my addiction to masturbation but for a while now, I have stopped masturbating and I have read articles on the internet that made me realise no matter the penile size, you can satisfy a lady if you do it rightly and that is one of the things that has added to my confidence level. Please, look inwards.

I'm sorry! And yes, it is. I don't know what province you're at or I would help you look, but I'm sure you would find one near your location if you do a search online. There're lots in every city, so it shouldn't be a problem finding one. I'm going to join one in september near my school. I've been procrastinating with joining one, but this time I will, hmpf! >Serious Face<.

Re: How Can I Overcome Shyness by Nobody: 7:07pm On Jul 25, 2012
To overcome shyness, just invent something extraordinary in your spare time like Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg, or you can make some real serious money and the ladies will be falling over you, but then its not an easy route!My advice is become a genius at something stop trying hard to change what you perceive as negative, only try to improve on your personality.To some folks am shy, to some others I used to be a real 'woski' dude in my uni-days so its about personality projection. Stop focusing on negative thoughts except you are a teenager. Man UP angry

Enlightened1: @ OP... We're on the same page. I am such a shy person. I am 24 and have never asked a woman out before, for the fear of rejection and unfavorable response. No matter how hard I try to give myself confidence, once I meet a lady I just forget what to say, and it makes me feel so stupid. So I just stopped entirely. I try to do other things like play video games and read to take my mind off there. I've never had sex before, don't know what it feels like. But yes I do self service.


Bros you are 24 oo, time no dey. Any guy u see with a babe today passed through this ur stage. Keep trying and keep making mistakes, you will succeed.
