dating - how to overcome shyness?! -
April 26th 2011, 11:20 PM
Hiya,
I met this guy through an online dating site and I really like him and he says he likes me too. Problem is, I'm painfully shy! We've been talking online for about two weeks and have agreed to meet up. Problem is, I have absolutely no idea what to say! It sucks, I hate being so shy I'm always the same until I really get to knwo someone. Anyone got any advice? xx

Don't over think what to say. When you meet up just let the conversation flow naturally. Don't put unnecessary pressure on yourself! And if you really are desperate for a topic just tell him storys of fun things you did as a child or funny stories. Stuff like that!
Good luck <3
Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

Katie's right about letting it all flow naturally, & most of all: dont let the shyness get in the way of you being yourself . Buuut if you ever do find yourself at a dead.end in conversation, think of cinversation you could start to help you guys get to know eachother.
Good luck!
