No, this is me being completely real about myself. I've never been comfortable in my own skin, and have always felt so awkward in social situations. It makes making friends difficult, to say the least. | |

I am not that shy, but there is only one person in the world that has the ability to make me clam up and litterally melt at the same time...with just a simple hello. | |

I'm only shy when I'm naked and it's really cold.

It's hard for me to answer this concisely - there's no 'yes, I am' or 'no, I'm not' answer.
I wouldn't class myself as shy but I used to be. Very much so. So even though most people who know me would laugh at that idea, I still get the odd reminder even now. Not very often but it happens. I guess it's just my self-perception as opposed to how others see me. I'd still say I'm slightly shy; most other people would disagree. It used to take me quite a while to let down my barriers - and people would often mistake it for arrogance - but I'm pretty easy-going that way now. Once I know someone - that's it. No holds barred. But, as Supa says, socially it's hardly ever an issue. Romantically, that's a different matter. | |

I'm one way or the other. Sometimes I love being in a big group of people, sometimes I prefer one-on-one. Some people can go into a large group and immediately make themselves known; some, like me, are a slow burner. It depends on how well you know the people, obviously. If I'm drunk, though, ignore that last comment. Anything goes. | |

I'm sure you're not. The one thing I do hate - and I won't allow myself to be controlled by it anymore - is other people's perceptions of one's self. I've found that, sometimes, other peoples' expectations have caused me to act in certain ways. People think you're shy, you can act shy as a result. People think you're the life and soul of the party, you can be that too. And sometimes you can be the total opposite of what they were expecting. But, personally, I find that draining. People are too mercurial to be like that. | |

I can be. I'm a LOT better than what I was growing up, though. College life kinda changed all that for me. | |
