I have always been reluctant to call/im/text my friends and aquaintance, even though i want to merely for the fact that i ALWAYs feel like i must be a nuisance to them. I'm not even talking about love interests, i just mean regular friends and aquainatnces. It's not that they say i am a nuisance, in fact no one has EVER said that, it's just that maybe i am afraid that they will start to get annoyed with me.
does anyone know if this is a shyness thing? does anyone else feel this way ever? how do i overcome this? I don't want to constantly worry and fret everytime i am going to make a phonecall!! i know that after a while people will start to assume taht i am just not interested in them, and that is NOT the case!! i am afraid i am losing touch with a lot of friends because of this worry!! what should i do! i really want to rekindle some of those old friendships now, with people i've lost touch with but i dont even know where to start and each day it gets harder to pick up the phone!

You are just being delusional. Just drop the little insecurity. It is NOT a shyness thing. If people say that you are a nuisance they will show it themselves they may not pick up the phone, or answer you or avoid you. If they do that then maybe you are. If not, then GET OVER YOURSELF. Because you keep thinking that way you are slowly losing friends for something stupid.

I get nervous when i make a phone call too, so try texting them, that way you can start the friendships again, see if they respond, and go off from there. Text them something like this: " Hi so and so, I wanted to see how you are doing, and if you want to hang out some time."

I think perhaps you should seek therapy. A friend should not think you a nuisance and you certainly should find ways to build your self esteem so that bad broken tape stops playing in your head.

A shy person shows interest by actually maintaining eye contact for more then 1 second and grow your courage up even more.

What I customarily renowned although is anger, sadness, hate, boredom, tiredness, starvation, soreness, all of this i in my opinion discover ordinary to renowned, yet there some that I seldom do.

If you send an occasional text message.. No one will be annoyed at you.. That's the magic of text.. They can read it at their convenience..

I don't know, I have problems with that myself. First you need to have more confidence in yourself, then you will stop being so shy.
