i just suggest hanging out with more open people. people who always seem to find something to talk about. that's what i've been doing and i'm more open now. at least with my friends. in the class i try to be loud and participate in things, but the teachers either say 'forte!' or 'can you speak up. you have a low voice'. open people. that will help. i think it might be in the genes tho. <_<

I used to be quite shy as well, that is until I actually started to talking to people. Actually most people are afraid to talk to me IRL b/c I sort of glare at people... Don't ask me why it's just a bad habit of mine but when I mention anime most people know what I'm talking about and we get into a conversation.

Lucky you kara, no one knows what anime is around here, if i find someone who does i have to talk to them for AGES! ^^
Im really shy of people my own age, but other wise its usually really easy to get into a good conversation ^^
i once saw this lady on tv that was really shy/had low confidence so she put a T-shirt on saying "Hug for charity", she said it helped quite a bit, and it looked so fun as well ^^

Hey Karuto I know how you feel I was the same way. It's really hard to over come being shy. This is what I did, I told myself that if I didn't show people the real me I would never have any fun in my life. I told myself this because I grew up thinking that I was weird and so I shied away from people not wanting to get hurt by them. By talking to people and telling them the things that I like and the things I like to do I found out that more and more people liked the same things I did, they were just afraid to say anything for fear of rejection. Also I told myself that if people didn't like me for who I was scr*w 'em. There are 30 billion people (ok ok I'm an over exaggerator :) ). Anywho, there are 30 billion people in this world and if a handful of them don't like me than they're not important to me. I hope this helps. It helped me anyway.
BTW: Always remember I love you even if no one else does, k?

Hear hear! I have always been shy. I wouldn't talk to anyone but the little group of peole I had surrounded myself with. And it was getting to be a problem when our interests started to diverge. So somehow or the other, I got into the loner mindset. I was forever eating lunch by myself and stuff, generally annoying myself. Eventually I got tired of it. And what I did was started smiling more, trying to look friendly and acting more open. Look for another smiling face, go up and just say hello. That's what I did at the start of this year. Now she's mah best buddy! Or if you're in any clubs or anything, try to meet clubmembers' friends. -^^-
I dunno if any of that helps, but it did fer me! Jeez, just lookit me bouncing around these forums! I'm really like that IRL! -^^- XD!
