Along with many other people in this forum, I am also lonely. I have a few friends, but not too many. I have never had a relationship with a girl. I am very shy and look very young for my age. I am also very paranoid. I can't stand it. People say just start talking, but I cant do it. I need smaller steps. I need to break away from shyness. If I dont, I will probably wind up killing myself. So if anyone has any advice please let me know.
hi there, i too, have been where you are and i am still battling shyness. i guess the only thing that has helped me to get out of my "shell" is just to realize that no one can affect you. nothing anybody thinks about you has any bearing on your life. i know you'll think "yeah right" because when i heard this i said that, but if u take this advice seriously and try it, it will give you more self confidence. this is one small step that will help you. also, you should embrace the things about you that make you unique. try to imagine yourself if you were just like the popular kids that socialize at parties or the ones that get all the girlfriends. you probably don't like that picture do you? i know i didn't atleast. so think of the things that make you, you. sometimes it might seem at first that you dont have anything that makes you unique, but trust me, there is a plethora of things underneath it all. i hope this helps you. if youd like you can p.m me
Hi there..Don't kill yerself man..if you did though, go back to the 1960's..'cause I know you'll be wanted there..but dont die..I know that it means nothing,me--a stranger, and that it sounds cliche to tell you not to die..but you,and me man.. are in the same boat and it's rolling down the same stream.. First I can suggest this..it may sound dumb but oh well.. I think you should give the blues a try..go out and buy a nice,lonesome blues cd..because the music,of the blues is healing..and it helps just even a little..If you trust no one, and nothing,then at least trust my honest word..of this. If you want me to suggest blues artists I will,you can write me a private message.. or I can tell you here.. Next..the idea is this: dont think about being alone.. if you are, at a time just do something that makes you feel totally good or else, drown your sorrow in ways that can help. such as,for me,i write poetry.. and I play guitar..and do art.. and my pain is seen in that work.. You also dont have to feel bad cause you look young..cause darlin', young lookers are well liked..round here.. lol.. thats a good thing man!.. do you dig music?..well also,go and buy a ticket and ride to a couple music fests some place..'cause you wouldnt believe all the action thats goin' on there.. they'll just start coming up to you..then all you do is take it easy..small steps.. answer their small questions,then that'll lead to a flow..of conversing.. but then I dont know what to do after that.. thats how far I've gotten... hey listen man..if you wanna talk to another lonesome one like myself anytime..you can write me a private message.. and i'll respond.. but i hope I helped ya..
