I'm fine around guys when we are friends but as soon as they say that they like me, I freeze up. I don't know what to say or talk about especially if I don't have the same feelings towards them. I get really nervous and panic and usually I push them away. I hate doing that to them because I would hate that but I don't know what else to do.


That describes me exactly... Mad

shy girls are a huge turn on... as long as it's not the self-loathing, depressed goth type. or maybe that's just because goth girls are usually fat and listen to shitty music. oh well, it was worth a try!

Shy girls are often cute. :3 I have a strong feeling that shy lonely girls are rare compared to boys.

Interesting feedback from the ladies on this one. I wouldn't have thought chicks would get too shy around guys 'cause it seems like guys have to put all the effort forward. One of you mentioned that you had a bf, so it can work out sometimes, correct? How did you get a bf if you're intimidated by guys?

I can't talk to women who I immediately find attractive, I just can't focus enough to talk to them, I'm pretty scared. About a year ago, I went out to play pool with a couple friends and the gf of one of the guys. The gf invited one of her friends to come along, and I was very attracted to her and she seemed interested in talking to me, but I just couldn't talk to her that much because I was intimidated. Sucks, because I were normal something probably could have worked out. Even if I'm not initially attracted to a girl (and so not intimidated to talk to her) if I become attracted to her later, then all the sudden I become scared of her.

yep i feel really nervous around guys aswell. I just dont know what to say to them, i go blank or end up saying somthing stupid. I think i probably look quite unconfortable around them aswell because thats how im feeling. Thats probably why i dont seem to have much luck when it comes to meeting a bloke, Im not unatractive, i just dont give off the right signals or say the right things.
