Start talking to people! I am a shy person too, but I dont know if you are this way, but once I get to know people I might be the craziest person you ever met. Just go up to someone that you know, and start talking. Soon enough you two will become good friends, and then you will get comfortable enough to make more, she may even introduce you to her friends, too. |

I was exactly like that before! I was even the dorkiest loner ever. You should try to open yourself up to the world...don't hold back. Be active. Eventually, people will get to know you even better and some would even be interested. Takes a lot of courage, I know, but everything will be worth it. ;) |

growing up, we all fear not being accepted deep down. Don't be afraid to reach out to someone else who you think is shy. You'll make a new friend. You're a smart kid and can probably come up with a question or 2 to break the ice. Don't be afraid. Remember there are more folks in the same boat than just you! |

It takes time. embarrassment is the biggest thing to get by. as you get older you don't care so much what others think and you will embarrass yourself without even caring. good luck |

Socialize with people (I don't recommend the "popular" ones yet.)
Start with a simple subject like about homework or where they got their clothes and invite them to go shopping or something. |

If you're shy, it can be difficult for other people to know what you're really like, and most of the time, people assume you're stuck up. Like, she thinks she's too good to talk to me.
I would join a club at school - something that interests you the most (track? foreign language? chess?) that way, you'll already have something in common with the other people in the room.
Try talking to some different kinds of people - there's always something to say, like 'wow, it sure is warming up outside, isn't it?' or 'Man, did you see that hockey game last night?' Or if there's some big issue going on at school, or a teacher to hate, you can start talking about things like that - given the season, a well-timed question about where people are going for spring break can be a real ice breaker.
Good luck - not that you'll need it!! |

Try and go up to someone and give them a complement, oh i like your shoes, where did you get them, try and go from there and try to be positive. |

hi! your shy, that's cool. shyness is actually cute to some people. if you want to break this shyness you will have to learn some new things.
you can learn to break this shyness with people that you won't have to interact with too often.
nobody really knows your shy but yourself. so if your were to ask a question to someone, they would answer you like they would anyone else.
So try to interact with people that you will not see often, so you can test how your doing. You will realize soon that people respond to you. Once you get respect, you will develop confidence.
good luck......... p.s. you will be able to do this |

i was the same way so i know its hard but when your sitting in class, listen to what others are talking about and if you have the same interests go up and talk even though its embarrassing but it can earn you major points and life long friends ( yes its eaves-dropping but who cares if you stop being lonely and shy, some people can bring out your spontaneous side if you let them but remember that you have the power to control your life and if you want friends go for it even if it makes you look stupid at least you had the courage to try and maybe people will start to notice you me and you'll earn more friends,friendship is something you earn, not something you just get.p.s. if your classified in the social ladder as a geek freak or nerd like me, them just pick up the courage and you'll find friendship in the most unobvious places trust me, from 1 14yr. old to another) |

Just start by doing daily small talk with people and being friendly. I was very very shy until about 18 years old. But it is something you get over so don't worry! |
