im 16, and i go to a very small school where everyone knows eachother, and i have a very strong reputation for being kinda shy, even tho i am not, and i know thats why alot of guys dont consider me an option for dating.for example, people are very surprised to see me at parties, even tho i like them, and that just makes me feel awkward. any advice? on the confidence part, guy part..anything
thanks.

I would prefer my girlfriend to be shy rather than loud and what your might believe to be "popular".
You are 16, 6' tall and 150 lbs - absolutely nothing to be shy of -
- in fact other girls your age should be looking up to you (lol) - (kidding - I am 6'3" myself.)
If you want other people to notice you behaviour i.e. realize that you are not shy - then play on their own egos (it always works) - in other words - compliment other people's way of being - appearance - etc. It is the greatest "ice'breaker"

Guys like a lady in the street but a freak in the bed. When you find someone you like, let him know you want to be wild and if he wants to join in.
But to be proper about things, just don't act shy, how can someone say that is a shy girl when all she does is do crazy stuff out loud.

you can start by believing more in yourself and building up your confidence. You need to stop warring about what others thing if you and just let the real you shine through. You will make more friends when you are friendly and talk to others even if you are the one to start the conversation. Even if you have to start little by little.

being shy is not a bad thing as long as you have human contact, dont change yourself to fit what people want. i was shy but i found that it wasnt my problem it was that i was around the wrong people.

You have to have confidant's in your self. Don"t be too fast to push yourself out their, you are going to have plenty of time for that, Read books on self esteem, this will be a big help to you , in more ways, then one. .

Only you can make progress in overcoming your shyness. Start by being more outgoing, by conversing with more people, by getting involved with extra cirricular stuff.
