All of my life I have been pretty antisocial and SHY. never go out anywhere, stay at home unless I absolutely have to go somewhere, only 2 real friends, etc. What can a shy, super self conscious person do to begin having a social life? (and don't say nightclubs, cause I hate dancing) I need to make some friends, but it seems Ive been out of the scene for quite a while, and need to get some REAL friends (not just people on social networks). What should I do?

I know how hard it is to make real friends. Its hard to meet people, then get to know them....
Maybe you could try going to places like a library, coffee shop where people hang out, a church of whatever your religion is... Even your own neighborhood.
Just smile & be friendly & eventually people will notice you & want to get to know you.

Look very deeply into yourself and what your interest are. Stamp collecting? Motorcycles? Boating? Whatever. Find what interests you have and begin researching where you can go to pursue these interests. Even if it is only a monthly meeting or an event, if you do this you will not only meet people but you will meet people who have something in common with you. It is very hard to get out of cage once you have put yourself there. If you find a group, do volunteer work for the group. You often get to know alot more about the subject and meet people in a more informal way when you are helping out before or after an event. Good luck, People are great but we're all imperfect. You do not have a corner on the market. Learn to laugh at yourself and plow ahead.

Well sweets, you will just need to go out and find some. Try goin bowling, movies, anything that you find interesting... You will find some more friends, you just gotta be willing to talk. Shyness will get you no where. You don't have to go to nightclubs, to find friends even though that is where all the excitment is... But, there is plenty of people out there who would love to be your friend...

How do we fall in love continuously? I asked this question till now, and those are a number of the suggestions. a million. verbal replace: couples could have the potential to talk approximately something and each little thing, 2. appreciate: couples could fee the different over all others and coach it. 3. Love: couples could consistently re-ignite their romance, and hearth up the butterflies they felt interior the initiating. 4. have confidence: couples could proportion their lives, possessions, and aims without worry of the destiny. 5. information: couples could prepare endurance and forgiveness whilst one or the two fail. 6. dedication: couples could perceive their roles, responsibilities and standards to stay by skill of, and shop them to the main suitable of their potential, even whilst they experience as though they're all on my own. i don't be attentive to if this could be an entire record, whether it supplies us something to artwork with. faith/helpful thinking/self belief ought to help to boot. you won't have the potential to make her love you, yet as a newborn of God, you're enjoyed, and you'd be helpful that your heavenly father may additionally assist you in all circumstances.

Go bowling, join a gym or YMCA, got a dog?, go to a dog park, etc... do things you already enjoy and chances are you will meet and make new friends who also enjoy those activities, good luck to you!!

Let me suggest going to a small church and joining their singles' fellowship. Hey, you might like it after the first few visits! If that's not enough, get you a dog - "man's best friend."
