A therapist can give you medication that can help you come out of your shell. If you are against short term medication...then a therapist or life coach can still help you.
Shy is boring and you miss out on life !
I hope you get over it soon. Good luck

You shouldn't be shy. I'm shy, too, but you can overcome it to some extent by smiling and saying hi to people and making an overture to someone else who seems shy. You don't have to say a whole lot when your around other people, but you can draw them out by asking what their interests are. Find and interest yourself and have a lot of current knowledge about it so you feel comfortable talking about it. Stand up straight and act confident, look people in the eye. You'll find you niche. Don't be shy. You're equal to or better than everyone out there! Get out there and enjoy your life.

Dont be shy. It will ruin your life. I USE to be really shy but in time I realiezed that when I first meet people they havent a clue as to who I really am and that gave me the opportunity to speak out and be outgoing around them. Trust me it took a lot of nerve for me to act like that b/c it wasnt my nautre but it was so fun "acting" like that and by the time I knew it became a habbit. Now Im a social butterfly. You have to take baby steps to get over it. Here are some tips, be the 1st person to speak out, be the 1st to give ideas or makes suggestions, Be the 1st to do something crazy, funny or goofy. Just always be the 1st person to act. But DONT be the 2nd to act. Trust me 1 day at a time and people will think of you as the social butterfly. Make friends laugh & enjoy life. Just relax everything will come to you but you have to act on it. Good Luck. dont be shy!

Go with the flow Dave. People change as time goes on. The girl is going to choose you anyway shy or not.

It's ok. Just be yourself. Some girls/guys LOVE a shy guy/girl.

Start by saying hello to people. That is the first step to coming out of your shell.
