It's not too seldom that you read/hear about boys being shy infront of girls but what about the opposite ? Anyone here who can tell if this is just as common? :}

Can only speak for myself and say that I'm not shy around guys, but the second I want to impress them, it's as if my brain switches off. Bloody irritating.

I am terrified of guys and have never dated a lot (even though I'm told all the time how attractive I am) Rolling Eyes

If I'm so "attractive" and I'm a female, why, I wonder, do I NEVER get asked out? If I do get asked out, the male loses interest in me in 4 weeks.

So to answer the question, I am terrified of men, even though I like them so much. I've always been drawn to shy guys (my boyfriend also has SA). Outgoing "stud" men have never really liked me or hit on me. Probably because they see me as boring or whatever.

What do you mean the wrong idea?? You mean you blush around guys you don't like aswell??

yes, i'll blush round any guy at anytime, i just cant control it but sometimes guys get the wrong idea & so do my friends then if im teased about it i go even redder which really makes they think i like them which is what i was afraid of to begin with so its sort of self fufilling

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.
