You are an introvert , no big deal.

In other to help yourself you must set a goal daily to speak with a lady or two daily, try simple lines like " excuse me, do you stay around here, I like your looks, can I have your number, can we be friends" highest she'll say No, or walk off.. but slowly you'll start getting over the sense of embarassment and start replacing it with jokes like " She no even fine sef" , "girl wey I won manage"

You're likely suffering from social anxiety disorder which is a mental health condition and beyond mere shyness.

Good day everyone..



One boy was telling me yesterday to join 'cult' to improve. Though am thinking of it. People take me for a fool. Nairaland is my best website.

...


On the bolded don't ever try joining cultism it would end in premium tears. On being shy, you are not alone i was exactly like you when i was your age, but now i confidently talk to hundreds of people at a time and a relatively good salesman too. The secret is that you should keep developing your mind and move with people that you can learn positive things from, and dump that friend of yours that is encouraging you to be a cultist it would end in premium tears for you and your Mum. Selah!!!!!

Nothing is wrong with you. There are many people out there who derive energy from being alone, just like you. Try taking a personality test on www.16personalitites.com. This will give you a better understanding of yourself. As you learn more about your tendencies, you will begin to gain confidence in the fact that you are different and that being different is a good thing.

Good day everyone..

I'll be 24 next month. The problem now is that am too shy. I don't have confidence. I don't have any girlfriend (am too shy to speak to a lady). You can wrongly accuse me and i will went away crying.

I am the first born of a family of six. A man once accused me of sleeping with his wife (the woman in question senior my mama) and i was like "me ? Me ? Me ? " and I went inside crying.

The only friend i have is my phone. The thing is affecting me seriously. I can't eat in public. I can't insult. I can't even look at your face to talk anything.... I talk alot inside... Am an online keyboard wariorr..

You don't have a problem as far as am concerne, what you need to do is this if your parent can sponsor you go and learn a trade and after six months start your own business or go and learn a work you have passion for at least one year make sure you learn it very well before you leave.
When you start your own put those creativities in you into it and see the sky being your starting point.
Don't join cult, don't start drinking and useless your future.
Remember you are different, what works for others may not work for you.

It's a gift, take advantage of it
Bring an introvert is a characteristics of being capable of great thoughts
Read, learn new things everyday
You have a big mental capacity, you don't have to be like the other's
There are few of us out there, and we definitely don't fit 'in' .

Your advise is on point, but it's important he knows that being shy and being an introvert are two different things. There are also shy extroverts

@Facts111 You need to work on your social skills. Read more books and go out more often, interact with people starting from those you're comfortable with and progress to strangers, improve on manners like appreciation, compliments etc, little by little you get used to building better social skills. Do some research

God hasn't given you the spirit of fear ,but of power and a sound Mind.

U can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

Please join a Bible believing church ,join the work force deliberately involve yourself in the youth activates. Pray ,read your Bible

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Then watch football, argue with sensible guys.
Go to newspaper stands discuss politics.

Use hear piece then Sing aloud .
Greater you bro.

The one that leaves in you is greater than the one that leaves in the world .

Cheers

Very good that you are shy. Your intelligence is high. You need to judge yourself less and just enjoy people. Yes, people can be enjoyed.
Remember, it is really dumb people that are never shy.

OnlyDeCapPlease:


First of all. Don't join cult. It won't change anything.

Shy people alway take themselves too seriously and think that everybody is watching them or has time for them. Wrong!

Shy people tend to think that other people are easily doing things but it's difficult for them. Wrong!

Learn not to take yourself too seriously. It's not that important. It's ok to be wrong or foolish or mumu or be rejected. Shy people have a problem dealing with rejection. So you get rejected? Fvck em all! You get told off? Fvck em all! Someone laughs at You? Fvck em all! Someone gives you "that look"? Fvck em all! Someone insults you? Fvck em all! All these things don't kill, e nor go commot anything for your body. People often do those things to embarrass you or get a reaction from you. They get annoyed when they can't get any visible reaction from you. That's not your problem.

Pick one day. Call that day you "fvck ya'll" day. On that day do or say anything that comes to your mind. Damn the consequences and just do it for that day. If anyone gets angry, just say I'm sorry, but in you mind say "fvck you", and then carry on doing things. Just don't break the law or physically fight anyone.

Try it and let me know how it went.
best advice
Re: Am I Normal ?... Am Too Shy by KennethIbe59(m): 3:59pm On Jul 07, 2021
Same thing with me.. But I discover the problem, Mastubation.....

I am 31 by age, I have been mastubating for over 14years and its killing me slowly..

I have tried on different occasions to stop it but all effort prove abortive.

Most times I mastubate 2 to 3 a day.....

But last week been the 29 of June, I went to church for program and pray that God help me to stop this mastubations..

Believe me it has not be easy but today makes it 8 days I have stay without mastubating.....

I pray God help me not to go back to it...

I try as much not to watch porn movies because I am addicted to it.......

I pray God help you too...

So my friend, don't think you have a problem there is nothing wrong with you.. If u can stop mastubating, u will be fine

Everyday only me..No friends,No relationship.just me..Even till now.. Don't join cultist oo,You will die Young,and if you turn to smoker or drunker..It will make it worst..How do I solve the problems 1.Close to God, whether you're Muslim/Christian.. Always worship God 2.Have a dream..dream is very important.. It equip you for future..3.Read-Try and read many Articles ranging from politic, economy, relationship,current Affairs..It would boost your self esteem.. Confident,pride and boldness will come..Have used this stuff,To gathered social esteem,personal esteem,social class.. Balanced life and inner peace..Just do this and see the magic..
