I can imagine, been there too.
As we proceed, we gotta talk about using your strong points to your advantage.

Handsomeness/beauty
Intelligence
Skills
Even silence to your advantage.

It will be a gradual process but hopefully it will work.
Other introductions are highly welcomed.

I need to know how to use my handsome abeg.It's just wasting away!

When it comes to silence,I'm a king!
I need to know how to use that too.

9ja2sweden:
I will be starting a thread soon about how I got to study in Sweden for free. Because, just in 2019, I was still gallivanting about the city of mowe, Ogun state. 30 minutes away from the Lagos state.

I will be sharing, what made the difference for me?

It was a fully-funded scholarship from the Swedish government for Master's studies in Sweden

How I got to win this scholarship?

What steps did I take to that got me to win the scholarship?

I will be telling you about he requirements, the benefit of studying in Sweden and more.
Before I tell you about what their requirements were, what really sold me about the Swedish Institute Scholarship were the benefits that each winner was guaranteed to enjoy:

Don't keep us waiting bruv!
You come online but ignore this thread!

Well,I grew up with parents who believes education is always the best legacy.They made me participate in only two things,Church and School.
"Mum,I want to go for my classmate's birthday celebration"."Face your book" is always the answer I get slammed at my face.
I was really restricted especially in the social aspect.They allowed friends to visit but did not allow me to visit friends.Meanwhile,I only had a small circle of friends.

It was when I got to the university that I realized,asides studying,I Know next to nothing.All the interest I had had been killed.

Now,I have greatly improved and can now strike conversations with people.But I don't know how to keep it going especially with the opposite sex.I get complimented almost everyday on how handsome I am(I still got complimented by about 3 people today,a girl inclusive).
But here I am,never dated and still a virgin.Ignoring greenlights anytime any day and twice on a Wednesday!

If your copy(written words or text) convinces someone to take action, then know you did well.
You wouldn't know your writing is cool to start with, just write and test it on people.

Another way is to read out loud whatever you have written. Does it make sense in your ears? If it does make sense, it will probably convince others.

Okay thanks

As an educator and mentor (training girls and women in ICT),

I will advice you to start with Microsoft softwares (word, excel, PowerPoint) then move to graphics (Photoshop, canva, or others you pick one) then further dive in blogging (you don't need to code though, just first learn UI/UX with figma or Adobe InDesign; after which you can learn how to blog with blogger or WordPress) Note: the blogging should be on something you passionate about or a skill you are currently doing).

With all this skills rolled in one you can be hired or work as a freelancer or online entrepreneur.

If it's a male,
learn graphics, video editing (Adobe premiere pro, wonders hard filmora,..) , animation (Adobe After Effect and others), coding (HTML, CSS, JavaScript or PHP, WordPress, these technologies should be learnt respectively and if one wants to become a block chain developer afterwards)

Cc: you can pick one of those skills mentioned above and dive deeper.

When they know the nasty things they do with another person’s sister.

This is common among the game playing guys, counting scores with women, building stats using ladies as data and gist and laugh about these with their friends.
No man will allow his sister to fall victim of that, hence the protection from his goons from dating her

Is the brother's friend the only player?
She can also date another guy entirely who is also a player.
Whoever will fall victim will still fall regardless.

Tbh,none of my friends and I could allow our sisters to date any guy within our circle!

Good day nairalanders.

I came across a thread about an introverted guy who wishes to discover a route into social freedom. The comments which followed afterwards showed me that, there are alot of people in the same shoe.

I, myself inclusive (though gradually breaking free) so I taught why not create a thread where we all can air our views, make friends and share the little secrets that may help such people break free.

In the course of this thread, helpful books to read could be recommended as well.

Dunno if it's a good idea, but if you think it is just reply with "HI" so we can advance into how to kick off.

Don't forget what makes you shy is all in your head, it ain't real... We all can do better.

Elock1:
Whatsapp or Nairaland thread.

NL thread will be better.
This way, experienced people will stop by and drop something useful.
It is easier to promote.

But WhatsApp group, experienced people will not want to join because they'll feel it's only for inexperienced people alone.
Not everyone will take the painstaking act of joining.We will have to be sharing link every time anyone wants to join.

Elock1:
Lol I understand you Sha... Me I devised a means that work for me most times.

I will just say with a smile "omo na so the matter be oh, story Don finish for my mouth sha"

Most times they end up laughing and it eases your tension it... If the person reacts well you may go ahead and say "oya bring your own"

Now the ball is in his court to keep the discussion alive

With the number of people I see having such issues here, I think we should open a whatsapp group to encourage people. What do you think?

Tomorrow, he will tell you , "bye-bye" and leave you behind in Nigeria.

Yes but you can choose your risk.

Risking your money by investing in order earn more money is different from risking your freedom/life in order to earn money.

Elock1:
you see that fine boy thing na so them dy tell me too sometimes... But me I've even come to realize that my shyness dy protect me from some things sha

As for the magic aspect read wide like read really wide (so you won't be an otondo in the middle of a nice discussion)
Read about social ethics and the natural thing every one jives to like, sport, music, religion, politics(nairaland improve me on this Sha)

Watch some oyibo film too (I no mean jackie Chan and Bruce Lee own like English-speaking movies love etc) and when you say something try to pick you words if you dy stammer.

Me once I dy shy it's either I begin stammer or my voice go lost kpata kpata. So be careful with words so the person go know wetin u dy yarn.

Go to plazas and shopping malls etc.. Give ur sef assignment "go one random guy, tell am say he shirt make sense.. (make sure it is Sha)
Then next head to a Lady and say the same thing about her wears.

She must smile except na sadist.. But liver Sha fit cut you.. First day I try am for one Plaza.. E just be like say mk ground open swallow but me. Walai


Omo things plenty.. We no fit talk am finish 4 nairaland sha

MODIFIED: one last thing, this is wen you must love to read or watch anything Jokes ( no be all those foreign ones oh) correct jokes way be say if Naija babe hear am she fit relate. Don't be a boring niccur.

omo it's not always easy Sha.. I won't say that I can approach everyone for a random chat, but I can sustain a very long gist if I'm in the mood..

That's why I said you have to discover you first b4 knowing your approach.
Like me now I began to smile a little bit more (not the roasted goat own) I dy frown like masquerade b4 because the kind introvert pain I dy carry for body dy show for my face.

But after I started smiling more.. People come dy say wetin dem think about me b4 (say I dy resemble stubborn he goat) and dem no know weda I dy ever happy.. Dem dy call me sadist self for school b4.

I think creating a thread or whatsapp group to help shy and reserved people won't be a bad idea... We can share our experience and how to overcome and all.

The bolded seems like magic to me.I wish I can pull that off one day...I smile too.
What pains me is the way I miss greenlights.Everybody dey disturb me say I be fine boy and I'm just wasting my "fineboyness" by being too reserved!


Well, little by little,I'll improve.

Elock1:
omo na gradual process oh. I was so bad that I even feel embarrassed to write what i did here.. Lol

I'm not a pro but I just feel different people have different approaches, what worked for A might not work for B.

But first of all I started with admitting I was a modafakin jerk.

Then I started reading all this rubbish online thing way no work oh... It sounds nice but liver dy always cut

I just hard to conquer my fear and register in a social group.. A theatrics group.

Then it all started by waving at random beautiful girls... From there we dy improve dy go.

I think whatsapp go dy better Sha.

Cool.
I can now start conversations with people but I don't know how to keep it going.

Wrong!

I Know many introvert soldiers.The only thing is,they know how to switch to bully civilians(all the shoutings,beatings, showing no mercy).Laslas, all na acting!They go back to their introvert self when gragra is not required.

A naval rating once slapped a bike man in traffic.He felt guilty afterwards that he had to ask God for forgiveness.
