No matter what you say, being shy as no known advantage. I tell you from experience. The only thing that you get is the compliment that you are gentle; which may not be true.

I can't really tell how i came to be freer with people, not like i'm completely over it, but now i enjoy myself more around people. My gist with others are now better spiced because i give part of myself to the discussion.

I also like to encourage younger people, let them know that they can whether the storm and all that, and the only way is to talk to them. And gues what? Engaging teens in gist is one of the most daunting task, ever . They would tune of in 10secs if your gist is stale. However i've developed myself and now can practically work up to a stranger, if i feel drawn to him/her, and begin a new gist.

That is the beauty of life; Relationship!

True

Shy isnt a good thing in my book

Shyness is good when u are shy on doing bad things. .here it acts like a checker for u as an individual and not someone else. While its bad when u are shy on doing good things and doing what is right. .cos Lysaa says so.

being shy is good for girls but bad for blokes. i want to see confidence in my man.

her's what i learnt from a book and i hope most of u have read it.
"understand: if boldness is not natural, neither is timidity. it is an acquired habit, picked out of a desire to avoid conflict"

'(why is everyone talking about shyness, am actually a shy person, but not extremely. one way of getting over it is to recognize that you are shy then work on ur weaknesses[color=#006600][/color]

Shy people are generally good observers.

its really terrible mate, it's like being an eagle in a cage. i've been there bro, i'm done with it thanks to a really fantastic book i read called the seven secrets of highly effective teenagers(u don't have to be a teenager to use this book)best of luck breaking out of your shell

Being shy is neither good nor bad, Its just an emotion that comes from within. Mi Fiance is a shy guy, and I love him for that. That was what 1st attracted me to him, I visited Nigeria, there were lotsa guys talking to me, mostly about their cars, education, music etc just to make me trip for em. But there was this guy who was quite, shy and just humble, he never said anything. Even his elder brother talked and gisted with me the whole day. I asked why he wasn't talking, one of his brothers said he is a shy guy,  He was actually the one I fell in love with, the others were kinda jealous though,  , We've been together for more than 2yrs now, Plus, He is extra romantic,  Shy guys rock

we cant all be outgoing.Am a shy guy and already given up been otherwise cos i ve really tried.So i only try make it sexy, making shyness sexy.Guess what, am making new friends that way.

Whats the other worse word for bad?

Not good

Guys out there, if you the shy kinda person, keep being shy and be urself, I bet u, most pretty gurls are attracted to shy guys, Most of friends, I mean they are dead gorgeous are mostly attracted to shy guys, They always end up dumping the fly guys, I dated a couple of outspoken guys, I mean, i ended up dumping em, they talk to much, and are mostly jumping bean. At the end, they always mess up,
During an interview with Pdidddy, micheal Jackson, beyonce, david bowie,etc;they all confessed that they are shy. But, once they are on stage, they are someone else.Shy guys mostly ends up surprising you;they do what you nver thought they could do. They mostly end up being the bravest. Its easy to get some money from them too,

Having self confidence is the best,being shy is really absurd nowadays,lol,as if im bold,poor me.

Its neither black nor white, though being shy to an extent can limit your reach.

On the other hand some people thrive on their own, with just a little outside influence.

Some teenagers were abused as kids, Shouted down and stopped from expressing or airing an opinion they've got.

Many of them grew up thinking their thoughts doesn't matter, while it does. In other words, low self-esteem.

shy babes sabi yansh wella

lefulefu: shy babes sabi yansh wella

perhaps...

I was a very shy teenager. I still av got some traits of shyness in me. But then my work the pple av met and other experiences have made me a much better person. I guess being shy only becomes a prob when it's stops u from doing things u want. Right now I still consider myself a shy person....But when I need to talk I talk. Besides I prefer meeting pple individually than in a group. So when I meet pple in a group I might jst watch them talk. But individually I cn rily speak a lot. I actually enjoy observing pple talk cos I cn guess the kind of person they r in few minutes by their body. Language and speech. But if u want to get me... U must rily try ooo...Which makes me mysterious and girls are always eyeing me...lol

It has its +s and -s.

Guy, dont let anyone make you feel insufficient about yourself.

being shy deprives you of many things, you won't be able to convince yourself on most things, I am a victim up till now, dunno its like a curse, looking out for good tips to overcome it, if you are willing to help. will be very glad, am just FED up!

Shyness is bad because of the fears and shame that drag the person down. It is like bondage; you cannot say the things you want to say or do what you want to do because of the fear of what other people will say or do.
