Hi ya! I know how you feel, it seems like it won't go away some times. But it does:). What kind of music, films and sport do you like?

Only just found this thread. Even though it was over a week ago - thank you!

I think your approach may be wrong, or at least difficult to understand. What kinds of guys are you trying to attract? Are they the typical good-looking hunks that all girls go for? Competition is fierce for those kinds of guys. If this is the case try widening your horizons and look around at...

I get sleep paralysis too and have seen many frightening things. Including Homer Simpson! Scary things that actually happened to me: -Drowning when I was 8. -Threatened with a gun and told I was going to have a bullet put through my head! - The guy thought I was someone else, turned out to be...

Hello! Glad to have you with us and hope to see you around.

I read in an article, I don't remenaer which, that some people have a problem with familiarity. When you get too close you get scared, then start a pattern of avoidance because of fear. I have the same problem, not limited to friends though - school, college, work and even basic social...

I think I should have worded it differently - I meant to say that women don't seem to suffer as much as men do when they're love-shy. A woman can be passive and her chances of finding a partner are still greater than a mans chances. There may be exceptions as it isn't a strict rule, in which...

Unfortunately there is very little info on female love-shyness because it's usually seen as a problem that affects men to a much higher degree. Women seem to be able to get through it much easier. About ugliness - most people are idiots and liars! They can be so vain sometimes! I have been...

Well, it's good to know that there are some females out there who understand what love-shyness is all about:). From a womans perspective, can you tell us what is the key factor in choosing a male partner? Is it all about being the alpha male, strong and outgoing or do some women like a guy to...

G'day to you too:)

Most agoraphobics are afraid of having a panic attack in a public place. A small minority are just plain frightened of being outside and around people. That's the problem I have. If I ever have to speak to anyone for any reason I get all nervous and scared. Eventually got to the point where...

Thank you, I envy you for being being able to go outside, but how do you keep from being scared to death? After 3 years of being housebound I've grown even more scared with each passing month. I need some kind of stimulation in my life or I'll go mad:P. How does everyone get the courage? Is it...

In hindsight maybe I should have made it a bit easier to understand. Go to wikipedia and look it up, there's a lot more info and a better explanation there. I know what you mean, Sci-Fi, girls shooting us down all the time just makes it worse! I have had girls simply walk away from me as I...

Has anyone heard of a condition called Love-Shyness? I first became aware of it about a year ago and could immediately identify with it. The main aspect of it is being shy and awkward around member of the opposite sex to the point where communication and interraction are impossible. There are...

Unfortunately I am terrible with water and never really learned to swim. I'd like to tell you the story of why that is: When I was 8 I had to go swimming at school, which I never liked anyway. But that day it wasn't a serious lesson and we were taken to the pool just to have some fun. There was...
