Is anyone else shy?

[Coco H]

Just wondering really. I know there is a lot of bluster in life but are there any shy adults out there?

[off_again]

yes

[titiany]

Shy amongst strangers, loud amongst friends x

[gary_tholl]

Me too...

different story after a few drinks though!

Oh God, yes.

This is all a front, you know. Inside, I'm dying.

[chrisgr31]

Yes, and I am sure a lot of those who on this Forum appear very outgoing, wouldn;t be so face to face.

[Plotloss]

Crucifyingly (made up word?)

Thanks...

[v15ben]

Probably so indeed! Wouldn't say I'm shy but I am not the most outgoing person ever!

[Bat21]

Abso blooming lootly, although I prefer to look at it as being reserved and a keen observer of human behaviour.

[Jinx]

I always thought I was until a friend pointed out that I can talk to anybody and rarely find myself alone. Ho hum - I guess instead of shy I'm now that annoying bloke who won't stop pestering total strangers.....

I think that's the Ebola

[tonyhetherington]

not at all. I'll talk to anyone in any walk of life, at any time and enjoy the wonderful diversity it brings me

ETA: I think sometimes non-shyness could perhaps be confused with being loud. You dont have to necessarily be quiet and retiring to mean you're shy.

Used to be but not any more.

In fact, I often wonder if something went wrong in my head as I'm so different to how I was when younger.

[beano500]

I really shouldn't be so childish.....

Are you having a laugh??

[MilnerR]

Used to stutter as a kid which makes you avoid having unnecessary conversations, so even now i can appear to be quite shy, although i speak as fluently as anyone from the north

I'd rather be a bit reserved than be a loud mouth t@. I don't mind people having nothing to say as long as they don't insist on saying it!
