Getting Over

I feel like I want to try again.After my recent break-up.Which was 3 months ago.I should try talking to people again.But I can't overcome my shyness.Enspecially,if I want to talk guys on this site.I mean I had talked with few.I just need some help on how to overcome my shyness,maybe its my fear of what people think of me is what is causing me to think some negitive thoughts.

Well I'm a really shy person too, especially in real life. I don't really know how to help with this, if you want to talk to guys on this site just try to ask how they're doing or if you read their profile and see something you have in common like manga/anime you like or hobbies you can start about that.

You're not the only one on this site who's shy (especially around the opposite gender). You, FawknSnipur and I are in the same boat. Any ideas?

I am pretty shy, but once I realized that if you go up to someone and they end up not liking you for some sort of reason, that'll be the only time you meet them (if you try to hit up your co-workers, that's a whole other mess). And it's not like they will remember for the rest of their life "that one dude/chick that was so awkward" unless you really did something to make such an impression (in which case you should start up stand up comedy)

@cpbong- The first part of your comment reminds me of SpringFest (the girls there didn't seem to like me for some reason). It's like every time I try to get over my shyness with someone, I get rejected, which doesn't help with my shyness or anything else.

I'm old fashion on romance.Let the guys make the first move.Part of shyness is also fear of getting rejected or heartbroken.I'm trying to start over.Even if I'm left scars of an broken heart since before my birthday.

Well, in the end, your shyness will only attract certain people. And unfortunately, waiting for that person to come to you can only bring you so much. You can't really change what people do (yes there will always be ones that reject you), but you can change your approach to things in life (see a rejection as weeding out people not meant for you).
