I met this guy about a month ago; he likes me and he knows that I like him back too.I'm a very shy person at first, but once I get to know that person I start to really open up and talk. So he calls me once every two days or so, and we talk for about an hour.But because of my shyness, he's the one mostly talking and I'm the one mostly listening. I can't seem to maintain a "good" conversation with him because I'm being shy & nervous :( and after a while, he doesn't call me much anymore.

I'm very worried that maybe he lost interest in me because I'm a boring person to talk on the phone?(or to talk in general)
I really need some advice! Please and thank you

Do you think you are boring and knows nothing. That's right, of course not. You are a very intelligent person and I know so because you were brave enough to share your concern with the publec. Sometimes a person could get so busy that he just don't have the time to do anything else. Who says you can't call him also. Maybe you can start with a question that he will be interested in or you can ask his opinion about something that happened at school or in the news. People will always feel good and start talking when their opinion is sought. Try it. Let me know your good result, I am cheering for you.

Not everyone is great at conversation on the phone. Some people are able to communicate very well. Some talk real good but cant type. Its all a matter of patience. maybe he doesnt have patience or understanding or you didnt explain to him and he didnt ask why you didnt talk much? Next time you talk to him, just tell him you'd rather talk in person.

Why don't you recommend that you go on a date somewhere that interests the both of you like the library, the park, the movies, or even for a bite to eat, etc. If he just talks about himself without asking you questions about you, then the relationship will be primarily formed around him. Put in your two cents honey before it's too late and then judge if YOU really like him.

Don't rush it. Maybe you don't have a lot in common. You will find someone that you have more things in common and talking just comes natural even for shy people. I promise because I am one of them. From experience I know this to be true. That is when you know you have found a friend or even more. Good Luck and be patient.

You are more shy, sensetive, self-abosorbed than you need to be. It's alright to be this way, life will go on, but you would probably not like to be this way forever. Start seeking out ways to change yourself, it will take time. Read books about anxiety and/or talk to a therapist/therapists about your problems. In this day and age, most everything you want to change is something that you can change. Just have patience and have fun growing.

I guess that we all have right to be accepted the way we are (no matter shy or extroverted). If the guy knows you like him and he stoped calling ... consider moving on with your life instead of being entrapped in a dead end.

explain exactly what you've expressed (in you question) to him. Explain you feel like ur not totally being urself b'cos it takes a while to get comfortable with people, but you enjoy his company/conversation, etc.Try communication thru email/text messaging or something, might be easier for you until you get more comfortable. if he's into u as much as ur into him....it won't matter. remember tho, "liking" has to be a mutual thing so don't force it. hope it works out for u! :)

You have to try and open up more. It may be hard but it will work.
