I have the same problem bro, I tend to be really shy and when approaching a person always go with "what if they don't like me, or I might say something stupid." But lately I have adopted the attitude of I really don't give a shit what people think, if they like me good, if not, Ill never see them again. Just get an attitude adjustment and adopt the I don't give a rats ass attitude and you will not go wrong IP: Logged |

Talk to every stranger you see in the street. It will kill you at first but soon you will be used to it and you will be cured. I know this works through my own experiance. IP: Logged |

Hey now that I think of it, if you want to practice talking with women then go to a strip club, those girls are pretty friendly and will talk, and they can't blow you off or be mean to you. IP: Logged |

BITE THE BULLET AND SAY FUCK IT.HOLD YOUR CHEST OUT LOOK INTO THEIR EYES AND SPEAK AS IF YOU ARE A GOD.IF YOU GET NERVOUS JUST SECRETLY FLEX YOUR BICEPS AS HARD AS YOU CAN AND HOLD IT.THE SUDDEN BLOOD COARSING THROUGH YOUR VEINS HAS AN EFFECT THAT ALLEIVATES NERVOUSNESS. ------------------ One more road to cross The only difference between me and a madman is that I am not mad.

when you get the urge to do it, then do it. don't wait and think about it, i find that makes me more nervous and then i don't do it. i read on some thing before, if it takes more then 3 seconds to get the courage, don't do it cuz you will be too nervous. so do it upon instinct, don't plan it out and shit kram-mark IP: Logged |

You guys will think this is stupid, but those phone datelines happen to be pretty good for at least overcoming shyness. Everyone is there for the same reasons and you communicate in increments with them by starting out on the phone, not with the face to face pressure. Number one drawback is making damn sure you know who they are as far as looks before you meet them. IP: Logged |

in my own experience hesitation is the mother of all regret....it is better to have tried and lost to have never tried at all...bro i used to be shy also..i would never dance never talk....are you overweight..because that was my problem...if you arent then you should be full of confidence...just like steel said...look them right in the eye and be yourself...dont put up any fronts..just talk as you were talking to your best friend...after you try it a few times you will be ok...also..dont save it for when you go out...try to talk to people where ever you are ...it will get easy evrytime you do it peace romeo some people call it heart IP: Logged |
