@bredwards100 The easiest way is to make peace with it. Decide that it is OK and even cool and charming if you act shy sometimes (after all, some people do like it). See it as nothing more than a cute and quirky trait that makes you unique. Laugh about it with your friends, family, etc. Ironically, the more you accept it and stop trying to change it, the less intense it will get. Often it will fade away completely in time if you truly change your perspective on it. Try it =)

People always give me a hard time for being quiet and shy. I understand what your saying but if your are shy your instincts tell you to repress in social situations. Its really hard.

@sammacs2002 Try this: totally own up to your shyness and make fun of yourself about it. Laugh it off and call yourself a "Raging Socio-phobe" or something silly like that. You'll come off as incredibly confident. ,-) Your old habit is probably to take it very seriously and feel bad about it--but practicing self-deprecating humor about your shyness will quickly become a new habit with a little practice. And the new habit will win out in time. You can do it!

@jenny14love It sounds weird, but you can be confident AND shy! When you are totally cool with your shyness, it stops being a limitation. Will some guys not like it? Maybe, but some guys are idiots. Besides, there's an infinite # of fish in the sea. TIP: guys that are VERY outgoing often lack sensitivity/self awareness. Sooner or later this is a BIG problem because sensitivity = capability. Set your sites higher. You're probably too good for the guys you've been pursuing (I'm serious).

exactly...you'll only torture yourself if you're trying to be something you're not. most people are unhappy and miserable because they're trying to be or do something they weren't made to be or do.

What exactly is an introvert? Their has to be more to it then "just getting your energy from yourself, for me to understand it."

I like that u show how it's a positive trait rather than telling us how to change it
