I both like and hate it. But then again I am both shy and not shy at times. Things are always so weird for me. I don't really mind the shyness because it seems to make me different and unique compared to most people but it has hindered me at times from doing things.

Lately I really haven't been feeling anxious or shy much at all. I've been going out a lot and meeting new people. But theres always those times of course which I become withdrawn again back to my old self. My old self which I try to not be.

I think it's something that can be "cute" for a minute, but then becomes a serious handicap in your life and for others in your life.

And the older a person gets, the less cute it is, and the more pain it brings in life, exponentially, in my opinion. Once you're in your late teens, shyness to the degree of a phobia isn't fun at all. I have had no fun in my teens because of it. No careless fun with friends, which was something I was looking forward to as a kid. I'm 23, and feel like I've missed out on quite a bit due to it.

The first time you think you're too late for something, it's FAR FROM IT.

I hate it, it makes my life a lot more difficult in the social aspect.

i like being shy, but i hate being social phobic.

I was waiting for so long, for a miracle to come, everyone told me to be strong, hold on and don't shed a tear. Let the rain come down and wash away my tears; let it fill my soul and drown my fears. Let it shatter the walls for a new, new sun. A new day has come...

maybe automatically i'd relate more to shyness, or pick it out since shyness is my natural tendency and i'd have more affinity to something more like myself

Exactly. The shyness is cute to a lot of people (including me), Its the social phobia that takes it over the edge.

Shyness has shaped my life. It basically turned my high school career into four years of nothingness. It's what caused me to be unable to pursue my interests or meet new people. It's why I graduated without a single close friend and felt totally disconnected from the world. So the only thing I can do is embrace it and accept it as the way I am and will always be.
