Do any of you have siblings who are very popular? Or are your siblings quiet, like you are? My brother is a year older than me, and he has always been really popular, with loads of friends. Our parents went on vacation this week, so we've had the place to ourselves, and I've been looking...

My cousin is getting married this summer and I just went to her bridal shower the other day and it really got me thinking of how I don't even have a close friend who could be my future maid of honor, yet alone have more than one friend for the other bridesmaids in my wedding party. My cousin...

Talk about embarrassing! I had to go and buy one today, since I clogged the toilet. I'm at my place at school and we don't have one. I went to the hardware store down the street and bought one. Totally felt my face going red and I avoided eye contact, but the kid behind the counter didn't seem...

This may be one of my least favorite "side-effects" to SA. I say it may even be worse than blushing. I've been participating a lot more in my classes this semester, so I've been feeling pretty good about myself. In one class today there was a short article in the front page of the paper about...

I just got a job at the store Target, during the holidays. We have to use these walkie-talkies to communicate with other departments in the store and to answer questions customers might have. And that walkie-talkie is going to cause me to have a fucking panic attack. I've only worked three days...

Or would you still be way too shy to go out to places or just go out anywhere, even if you had someone to do things with? For me, I feel like if I had friends (hell even just one friend!) I would go out so much more. Like I enjoy going out and am so eager to go places and have fun, yet it's...

English class - I talked a lot to the kid next to me. Lunch - I didn't really talk to anyone other than to order my sandwich, but I actually stayed and sat down in the cafe to eat instead of just taking my sandwich to go and just eating by myself in my dorm room. Math class - I talked some to...

Do you ever think it's easier to talk to other people who you notice are also shy, like yourself? In one of my classes, I noticed that there's a shy girl in it, and I had this weird desire to talk to her. lol. i didn't though, i don't know why. Like the teacher called on her to answer...

I'm on a roll tonight making posts about my life. lmao. Some of the people I went out with last night were going to Target today. I saw one of their away messages about it, so I thought 'oh, maybe I can go with them. That would be fun.' So I went down to their room and we were all talking for...

I had to go to a career conference today for my school. It's basically where you just go into a big room and there's tables for a lot of different companies set up, with people who work there at them. So you can just go around and network and get information about certain companies and possible...

It's funny how alcohol really opens people up. Like I went out to a bar/ club tonight with some people, and I kind of felt weird/awkward at first adn wasn't dancing much, but as soon as I got a drink in me, it was like I was able to let loose, have some fun, and dance. It's weird.

My roommate at college never showed up. Everyone else has a roommate, and I'm always the odd one out. Literally, as they're all in pairs with their roommates. I was really hoping for a roommate because I know that I'm shy and I felt that if I had someone to meet people with, then it would be...

It was a group project, and I had 3 other team members. I was the first one to speak. I don't think I did that great, as I kept just reading from the screen, kept fumbling with the paper in my hands, didn't make eye contact with anyone, and had my voice shaking like mad. Yeah. Not good. The...

I like reading people's different blogs and livejournals. lol So I just made my own blog a few days ago. You can read it and/or comment if you'd like. It's mostly just about my shyness and school and all. http://shygirlusa.blogspot.com/

I was all about overcoming my shyness and being more outgoing and everything once I got here to college, but now I'm thinking that it really feels like I'm trying to act fake. As if I'm trying to fool everyone, including myself. I'm not a crazy party girl or a super outgoing person. Sometimes...

No, I know that I have no friends. Normally I've always been content with being by myself, so I don't know what my problem has been recently. I started at college a week ago, and it's not really what I had expected. I just had such high expectations and thought that everyone would be super nice...

I have a brother who's a year and a half older than me, and he's really out going, cool, and popular. Sometimes I find myself feeling a bit jealous and sad. Like he's so damn cool and popular and goes out with his friends all the time, and I sit in at home every night. It kind of makes me feel...
